Silence is Brad Rimmer's intensely personal and sometimes painful monograph of life in the once-thriving wheatbelt towns of Western Australia. Born in Wyalkatchem in 1962, Rimmer chose at nineteen to escape what he saw then as a bleak future. In Silence he presents images that capture the region's permeating dust, heat and isolation and negotiates a delicate balance between hope and despair in his frank portraits of those who remain.
