Mary-Louise Levick was diagnosed with Early Onset Parkinson’s Disease at the age of 34.
‘Perq of Park’ is an impressive encounter. Here, Mary uses her Parkinson’s tremor to her advantage. Combination of light, long exposure and different camera settings produce stunning images. Be it abstract or geometric patterns, they take your breath away. This is not a chance photography as you would first think. Mary chooses her subjects and the locations. She considers the colours. And Mary is aware of the repetitions her tremor will create. Without a doubt, Mary is in control of her art photography.
Maud Creative is proud to exhibit this artists’ body off work. The opening coincides with the start off Parkinson’s Awareness Week in Queensland.
This exhibition shows Mary’s skill as an accomplished photographer. Her Parkinson’s disease is ‘masked’ by the use of tripod and remote shutter as she photographs ‘masks’ at the Venice Festival, often worn by common people.
The Maud Gallery and the Queensland Centre for Photography are now closed until February 8, 2025.
We wish you happy and safe holidays.
