Australians love light art experiences. Across our cities we celebrate with festivals of site-responsive light projections and commissions, while in our museums we have presented major surveys of internationally celebrated light artists, from James Turrell, to Olafur Eliasson and Anthony McCall, among others.
The installation was inspired by a trip Munro made thirty years ago in 1992; a legacy that continues to inspire new work today. Two large-scale works to be unveiled at Heide Museum of Modern Art in June, both titled Uluru (2020), extend his investigation into the physical visualisation of memories and moments from specific sites, and how they are recalled and reinterpreted.
