MURRAY FREDERICKS (born 1970) Hector #12 2011 pigment print, ed. 5/7 + 2AP signed and numbered on label verso: M-. 5/7 108.5 x 199.5cm (114.5 x 205.5cm framed) PROVENANCE: Hamiltons Gallery, London (label verso) Private collection, Sydney EXHIBITIONS: "Murray Fredericks: Hector", Hamiltons Gallery, London, 14 - 29 September 2012 (unknown edition number exhibited) OTHER NOTES: The series, Hector, is an ongoing exploration into the concept of space and isolation. Hector is the colloquial name for the convection thunderstorms 'Hector the Convector' that occur almost daily over the Tiwi Islands, situated in the Arafura sea, North of the Australian mainland. It was during the 'build up' season prior to the monsoon in 2010 that Fredericks chose to make his first trip to this area. Fredericks describes his approach as minimalist; his intention is to deny the traditional language of landscape in order to concentrate on space over place, whereupon the subject becomes the storm itself rather than the scene in which it sits.
