Down South

Plumbers, electricians, cooks, radio operators and weather observers who ventured to Antarctica from 1947 to the 1980s will have their stories captured in Down South, Susan Gordon-Brown’s photo exhibition on at Brisbane Powerhouse from 9 – 26 May.

The exhibition coincides with the 100th anniversary of Sir Douglas Mawson’s first Australian Antarctic Expedition and features the untold stories of life in the Antarctic for Australian tradespeople. The portraits are accompanied by anecdotes about the harsh conditions, medical emergencies and everyday life in one of the loneliest places on earth and help to bring the realities of Antarctic exploration to life for visitors.
