CONOR O'BRIEN
WESTSIDE
SAT 25 MAY UNTIL SAT 24 JUNE 2007
Conor O'Brien was born in South Africa, raised in Perth, lived in Sydney and Vancouver and currently resides in Melbourne. 'Westside' is the fruits of a year living by the beach in Perth, an amazing compilation of landscapes, portraits and observations of the people and places around him. A series of familiar yet uneasy photographs inspired by a particular moment in time, the photographer finds magic in the smaller details - the light across his subject's face or an image capture just before, or just after, something is about to happen.
