Tamara Dean is a critically acclaimed Australian photomedia artist. Dean’s practice extends across photography, installation and moving image.
Over the past decade Dean has distilled the conceptual narrative within her work to make the simple and succinct point that humanity is neither separate nor superior to nature. Rather, acknowledging that we are a part of nature, as vulnerable to the same environmental pressures as every other living creature.
"To see ourselves as different and separate from the ecology and ecosystem of our planet is leaving humanity unprepared for the world we are shaping."
Dean’s intention with her works is to make the point that this is personal. To depict the beauty of humanity to show how much we have to lose.
