Working within the fine line of art and documentary photography, Rimmer continues to probe at the essence of rural Australia and the emotional impact of the natural landscape upon individual psyches. Nature Boy is both a personal visual and written narrative derived from the cultural idiosyncrasies of place, identity, belonging, and memory as he returns to the Western Australian Wheatbelt, where he grew up.Brad Rimmer is an Australian photographer, who seeks to uncover the human within often alienating everyday environs. Based in Fremantle, he works on long-term projects of portraiture, landscape and social documentation.In 2009, Rimmer published a series of 30 works called Silence, thanks to a Mid-Career Fellowship from the Western Australian Department of Culture and the Arts. The Art Gallery of Western Australia acquired the entire Silence series; which curator Dr Robert Cook described as, 'One of the most important bodies of images about Western Australia made to date.'Working within fine art and documentary photography, Rimmer continues to probe at the essence of rural Australia and the emotional impact of the natural landscape upon individual psyches. Nature Boy marks a shift in Rimmer's artistic practice, adding short stories to the visual narrative. This personal compendium is a visceral account that examines the cultural idiosyncrasies of place, identity, belonging, and memory. As documenter, Rimmer teeters on the brink of both witness and participant as he reconnects with the evocative Western Australian Wheatbelt where he grew up.Numerous national and corporate art collections have acquired Rimmer's work, including the National Gallery of Australia, the Wesfarmers Collection, Artbank, St John of God Health Care and Murdoch University. Other works published by T&G Publishing include Silence (2010) and Don't Look Down (2019) - a body of work resulting from Rimmer's residency in Basel, Switzerland, supported by Artsource/Studio Mondial.Brad Rimmer is represented by Art Collective WA.artcollectivewa.com.au

'Captivating' Manchán Magan 'Sublime' Eoghan Daltun Seán Ronayne always knew he was different. Nicknamed 'nature boy' by the other kids, as a child he struggled to fit in and regularly escaped to the woods and coastlines around his home in Cork. The natural world was his happy place and where he discovered his true passion - identifying and understanding birds through their sound and song. A passion that would save him in the weeks and months following a near‐death experience in his late teens. Even in the darkest times, nature became his guiding light. As Seán found his path working as an ornithologist, he began to see how, by highlighting the wonder and beauty of the natural world, he could draw attention to the danger it currently faces. And, at the age of thirty-two, Seán received an autism diagnosis and his life finally started to make sense. Here, Seán takes us on his journey. From his adventures in the Sahara Desert, the jungles of Nepal and the streets of Thailand, to discovering the night sounds of Catalunya, and his mission to sound record all the regularly occurring bird species in Ireland, Nature Boy is an inspiring story of love, connection and the healing power of nature. 'Seán's sensitivity to the natural world captivates the reader, allowing all of us approach closer and appreciate more the sublime beauty of what surrounds us' Manchán Magan 'A stunning testament to the wonders of nature' Pádraic Fogarty 'Seán is perhaps the greatest and most eloquent champion for Irish nature I have come across. Powerful, impassioned and deeply moving, please read this book, now!' Niall Hatch, BirdWatch Ireland 'With disarming honesty, eloquence and humour, Seán Ronayne recounts how he took possession of a childhood taunt and made it his adult mission' Magnus Robb 'Seán is a man who reveals wonder from within the ordinary' Ken O'Sullivan 'A gorgeously personal, and deeply moving, account of living a life fully immersed in the fantastic wonderland that is nature. Sublime' Eoghan Daltun 'Informative, inspiring and insightful, this book is a heartfelt and enthralling personal journey of a life ensconced in nature' Anja Murray
