About This Project

Cameron May External facade photography

South Yarra residents can now enjoy their very own ‘giant art gallery,’ with emerging photographer Cameron May’s installation officially unveiled on January 28th on the side of Yarra House – developer Michael L Yates & Co.’s latest project in South Yarra.

Selected from a pool of up-and-coming photographers, RMIT graduate Cameron May had the pleasure of showcasing a scaled print of his artwork to the Mayor of Stonnington at a private event hosted by Michael Yates, while his original piece now adorns the side of the 26 story apartment development.

MARS Gallery Director Andy Dinan assisted in the curatorial mission, seeing the side of the building as an opportunity for emerging photographers to showcase their work.

Cameron’s artwork ‘Fabrication 19095, 11603, – 162888’ is part of a series that explores artificial light and shadow. Inspired by the planet Mars, each image in the series is a landscape ‘photograph’, framed and captured within a virtual environment.
