Photographer Duncan Giblin will be hosting his first exhibition at the CHADO gallery in Hobart. The exhibition titled TIDE is an opportunity to gain a different aspect of the east coast through Duncan’s work. Duncan resides in Norfolk Bay and is inspired by Tasmania’s rugged yet serine coastline. 

The images were taken in locations ranging from Flinders Island through to the south east of Tasmania. Duncan has chosen CHADO the Way of Tea as the location as he feels the atmosphere of the tea house suits the relaxed and meditative style of the exhibition.
“I have a sensitive and emotive approach to photography and taken the exhibition series as part of a study of the movement and moods of the coast, with a particular focus on the birdlife that inhabits these areas.”

“Tasmania’s coast line is fascinating and the flora and fauna has an intrinsically calming effect on me.  I try and capture the vulnerability and grace in these images. I enjoy seeking natural subject matter in coastal towns as much as I do the remote parts of Bass Strait. To me, the ability See Wedge Tail Eagles at places like Seven Mile Beach, or photograph Weedy Sea Dragons in areas that are now suburbs shows the true value of the Tasmanian coast”.

“Many small shack towns are turning into suburbs or larger holiday villages, but wildlife still exists there and makes these coastal towns unique. It is my hope that if further development continues it grows in a way that allows this uniqueness to be protected”.
