We spent two days to install a brand new exhibition last week. That was a documentary photograph exhibition. All of works were belonging to black and white photography. The theme of this exhibition was presenting a place in the wilderness. All exhibited works were collected by Brisbane artist Judy Parrott. She is a very famous female photographer and she travelled to the world’s southernmost continent on an Australian Antarctic Division Arts Fellowship in 2005. The exhibition presented the community life and extreme environment at several remote research stations of Ms Parrott. Besides a lot of black and white photography, the exhibition also displayed many found objects. Museum visitors can see a range of Antarctic items and listen to a collaged audio recording of ambient sounds, including the cracking of ice and the slicing of bitter winds etc. It was a very interesting and enjoyable exhibition. Otherwise, we also provided an informal public talk inside museum. The community residents can talk about the exhibition of “Antarctic”. They can have a cup of tea or coffee and eat some deserts through the talking. I hope all visitors can have fun here.

When I finished the installation, I was keep writing the “touch-tables” educational worksheets. During the last couple of weeks, I have completed the educational resources of our permanent exhibition and designed “touch-tables” programs for the public. However, I also got many small works to do, such as I wrote instructions of each educational booklet last Wednesday and arrange each items into the right kits of light table. After that, I have to numbering each object of “touch-tables” programs in case lost anyone. That was a big job for me. I brought plenty of objects for the visitors. And I needed to record the number on both objects and papers.
