Pamela Gough in 4 Degrees of connection

"Beneath what we can see, are the underlying plans and dreams of those who have gone before us ... those who lived, loved and built up the Brisbane we are gifted with today."

"I love being a tourist in my own town. Our city's stories are so young, they're not history yet."

Michelle Bowden in 4 Degrees of connection

"Through my photography I want to show the minute details of the little things like the veins on a leaf, the texture of a dry stick and the colours in breaking down mulch.
I want to expose a part of the world that is undisturbed and unperturbed by petty human worries. All this at our feet….."

Kirsten Dale Cutler in 4 Degrees of connection

"Whatever the subject matter, I seek to affect the observer with a sense of the mysterious and profound, and in doing so, express my understanding of the simple yet sublime nature of life."
