Patrick Ronald and Shannon McDonell have spent hundreds of hours constructing a life-size photographic diorama of an archetypical Australian farmhouse. This immersive installation offers visitors the opportunity to interact with a constructed scene and to take a voyeuristic look into another person’s habitat. Through painstaking detail Habits and Habitat investigates cultural transfer, the connection between country and city, and the ways that the ‘bush’ continues to inform Australian culture and identity.
