Allegra Goldman’s HSC Visual Arts Body of Work has been selected for ARTEXPRESS in 2019.

Her photographic body of work titled ‘The Morpholio Project: ‘The Shape of Energy’’ comprises nine separate images and nine accompanying labels. Allegra got unique access to the archive of specimens at the Australian Museum and collected a number of images, which she then morphed into these fantastical forms.

The labels developed for each image were created through the synthesising of taxonomy and binomial scientific names of both biological flora and fauna.

Allegra’s artwork will be part of the ARTEXPRESS exhibition featuring exemplary bodies of work from the NSW HSC Visual Arts examination at the following Metropolitan Galleries:

• Art Gallery of New South Wales, The Domain, from 4 February to 25 April 2019
• Hazelhurst Arts Centre, 782 Kingsway, Gymea, from 8 February to 22 April 2029
• The Amory, Sydney Olympic Park, from 5 March to 28 April 2019
