Traces is a major exhibition featuring the work of Tasmanian photographer Chris Bell at the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery in Launceston, Tasmania. The photographs are drawn from Chris' archive of large-format photographs, along with more recent digital work, covering both Tasmania and the Australian mainland.

A limited-edition book has also been produced to accompany the exhibition.

good to see that analogue photography is alive and well in Australia!

I once picked up "Primal Places" in a bookstore somewhere. Lovely work.

I get the impression that Bell moved on to digital and that the film-based work shown is from his archives. Indeed, there's very little about his work that I feel would compel him to work on film instead of digital; in fact, probably the opposite.
