In the series Black Saturday, the Belgian photographer Caroline Pankert conscientiously investigates and catalogues the effects of the 2009 bushfires upon the rural Australian community Traralgon South.

Rather than presenting the sheer magnitude of the damage, Pankert prefers to focus her lens on the detail. 
The series explores the intimate consequences of the fires as they are read through the indiscriminate traces they have left on people, property and animals alike.

Official Opening Event on Friday 6 May, 6pm
