'Joiners 3.0 : Hobsons Bay' by Jonabelle Cogan

A photographic collage artwork by Jonabelle Cogan

Joiners 3.0 : Hobsons Bay by Jonabelle Cogan displays a series of ‘joiner’ photographs of local sites within Hobsons Bay.

‘Joiners’, a term coined by the artist David Hockney, is an art form consisting of overlapping images creating one big panoramic image.

This process aims to convey that photographs need not be made by a single print, creating a sense of ‘seriousness’, but can also be made playful, mind bending, and sometimes abstract by assembling multiple photos of the same subject.
