Through the haunting beauty of cranes, both as symbols of progress and harbingers of a dystopian reality Bruce explores despair, hope, and the profound impact of a decaying world on the individual psyche. Seeking to provoke both introspection and empathy, the viewer is invited to confront their own relationship with the dystopian landscape and in exposing unseen layers of societal reconstruction and decay, to ask what might a possible future hold for us? Frame by frame Weathered offers space to meditate on what it is to be human within urban landscape
Please join us to hear from guest speaker Jane Howard – Arts and Culture Editor – The Conversation @theconversationdotcom and celebrate the launch of Weathered.

About Susan
Bruce’s practice includes moving image work, experimental short films, collage, drawings, prints and artist books. Her moving image work has been shown in Australia, Asia, Europe and the United States in galleries, video and film festivals, and public spaces. Her collages, drawings, artist books and prints have been shown in Australia.
Bruce am inspired by the textural qualities of film and the interrelationship between digital and analogue. Her process upends the ‘normal’ hierarchy between analogue and digital: her collages serve as the material that is manipulated and textured to form her digital work, and vice versa.
