Aerial photograph of the SS Georgette wreck lying in clear water off Redgate Beach

The SS Georgette wreck is off Redgate Beach, near where I live. I photographed it for years. The 150th anniversary was a reason to put the work in a room, during Margaret River Region Open Studios, 12–27 September 2026.

Four works were installed together, and people used them:

They are not proposals. They ran in the same exhibition.

Photography

Land, drone and underwater photographs from Calgardup Bay, Redgate Beach and Isaac Rock. The same pictures had to work as prints and as projection.

Historical research

The exhibition needed a record of the ship and the wreck, not only pictures. That included archives, and a trip to the Clyde, where she was built. There is a book as well. The story itself is on the exhibition site.

The room

Prints, light, labels, and the four installations. Cuborama Studio is the tool I wrote to compose the four projected walls. The public site for the show is exhibition.margies.app.
