In one of her latest works, Tarntanya, Australia-based artist Emmaline Zanelli explores notions of childhood and human fragility through a playful and provocative photography series. She uses various household objects and food to create compositions that also evoke fertility, eroticism, uncertainty, and illusion. The title “Semaphore” alludes to the seaside suburb in which Zanelli spent her childhood and formative years.
This was where I conducted my very first experiments facilitated by my mum, where weekends were spent building worlds on the living room floor with the furniture pushed back, blankets laid down, trays of dried legumes and bubbly dishwater, growing crystals and laying marble tracks.
