Photomanipulation: Honorable Mention 2021 (amateur)
AUTHOR
Having recently graduated from the Australian National University with a Bachelor of Visual Arts, Rachel Agnew tests the boundaries of abstract, conceptual and documentary photography within present-day constructs. Her work engages with both digital and analogue processes as she investigates the role of the photographer as contemporary artistic and commercial definitions continue to coexist and transform.
Her practice concentrates on structuring highly distinctive compositions with a focus on the ongoing currency between form and formlessness. Her work is largely influenced by personal experience as she observes and records the structures and environments that surround her, as well as the individual stories and personalities found within them. She presents work that often implies unspoken context, choosing to provide her audience with a framework for their own external thought.
