The exhibition hangs like a poem of photographs in which Fourie explores her personal curiosities and fears and offers the viewer insight into a collection of intimate moments.

Gravitating towards content that scrutinizes the complexities of companionship, intimacy and the vulnerability of the human body, Fourie�s images capture how we share our thoughts, feelings, lives and bodies. Fourie and her subjects are at times perfumed with a spray of sentiment, emotion, fantasy, and in other instances they are stripped raw, reflecting realties of decay, mortality and ruin.

"Didn't Want to be your Ghost" is a brave exhibition that exposes the photographer to the voyeurs gaze; it�s a poetic self portrait of a young woman exploring her reality.

The exhibition opens at the AVA in Church St on 7 May and closes at 13:00 on 1 June 2012
