ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Fiona Ferguson is a Sydney/Eora-based artist and photographer whose practice centres on slow image-making and the creation of richly layered digital archives. Drawing from a lifetime of observation, her work celebrates the colours, textures, and forms of everyday life – especially those found in the urban streetscapes of her local inner-city neighbourhood.
After studying photography at the University of Newcastle, she spent many years working as a graphic designer, honing skills in colour correction and photo manipulation. This technical background now informs her art-based photographic practice, which began in earnest during the COVID lockdowns.
Fiona’s artworks are often composed of 50 plus photographs, intensely and intuitively layered to form a single, cohesive composition. Grounded in place and time, the work reflects a deep sense of connection to community – drawing on personal relationships with family, friends, neighbours, and fellow artists. Through vibrant use of colour and a sensitivity to memory and sentiment, she creates immersive works that invite emotional engagement and personal reflection.
An emerging artist, she debuted her work at Sydney Contemporary in 2022 in the Paper room and has continued to exhibit there annually, with further participation in 2023, 2024, and recently on the 2025 fair. Her first solo exhibition took place in November 2023 as part of the Head On Photo Festival at Laerk Gallery, Newtown, and she exhibited again at Tiliqua Tiliqua gallery in Enmore, Sydney in October 2024. Impenetrable Daydream will be her second exhibition with Tiliqua Tiliqua, in October 2025.
Carol Muller trained in photography in the early 80s and after a 40 year pause returned to her training during lockdown.
Arriving at her architectural photographs from a lifelong interest in street photography, Carol’s work explores positive and negative spaces, line, pattern, colour and shadow. Carol’s photography is spontaneous, her orderly compositions are quickly taken on-the-go, often captured with the first shot.
She says, ’I try to look up, move closer, observe patterns, to see details that others don’t, to highlight the beauty and complexity found within a structure’s individual components, often seeing the same thing in different places and subjects.’
