Bio—Ali McCann (Naarm/Melbourne) is a multi-disciplinary artist well-known for still-life photographs and sculptures. Her work is informed by outmoded photography guides, amateur artworks, and the decor of educational and domestic spaces of the 1970s and 1980s. Working across photography, sculpture, video and performance, her compositions examine the illusionary tendencies of the photographic image and the aesthetics of education, nostalgia and memory.
