EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Paul Braven from the Australian Associated Press (AAP), we are transported to the Sydney Contemporary Art Fair at Barangaroo, Sydney. The focal point of the image is a colossal head, aptly named Helter Shelter, created by renowned artist Callum Morton. This thought-provoking sculpture dominates the scene with its imposing presence and intricate details. The juxtaposition of this giant head against the backdrop of daily life in Sydney creates an intriguing contrast that sparks curiosity and contemplation. As viewers, we cannot help but be drawn into its enigmatic allure. Morton's creation seems to transcend mere physicality as it stands tall amidst a bustling cityscape. Its exaggerated features invite us to ponder deeper meanings and interpretations – perhaps a commentary on power dynamics or societal issues. The timing of this photograph adds another layer of significance, taken on September 2nd, 2018 during a time when global affairs were dominated by discussions surrounding US President Donald Trump. While not explicitly mentioned in the caption itself, one can't help but wonder if there is any connection between Helter Shelter's striking resemblance to Trump and political undertones within Morton's work. Overall, Paul Braven skillfully captures both the grandeur and subtleties within this artwork through his lens. This print serves as a testament to Australia's vibrant contemporary art scene while leaving room for personal interpretation and reflection on our ever-changing world.
