“I’ve got this film, and I've got all this beautiful whiskey - what if I don't drink it, but just pour it all over the film, and see what comes of that?”
DARK LARK SINGLE MALT WHISKY
Follow the Amber Glow Series
We asked five of Tasmania’s most visionary photographers to show us DARK LARK single malt whisky through their lens.
In this series, artists Rémi Chauvin, Nick Green, Rosie Hastie, Jesse Hunniford, and Micheila Petersfield unleash their creativity to explore what “follow the amber glow” means to them. As they lead us from darkrooms to bonfires, wild places to wilder nights, we learn what these artists love about our island.
This series offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the artists at work and at play, celebrating the spark of creativity that illuminates the Tasmanian winter. You’ll never see whisky the same way again.

Micheila Petersfield
“I was playing around with that silhouette, sort of taking literally the prompt of ‘Following the Amber Glow’ and seeing it as this thing that's enticing you in, which I think is very much what the amber glow feeling is in winter. I think of it like a house that you're arriving to at night. It's all warm inside, and you're following the different red lights throughout the city or drawn towards a warm fire.”
Rosie Hastie
“I think that this speaks to Dark LARK in that it has this darkness, but it's still playful. The way that the images are produced has this sort of almost childlike science to them. And I am thinking about what a time winter in Tasmania is, which is just a hell of a lot of fun.”
Rémi Chauvin
On the challenges of photographing in the waves, Rémi says: “You've got swell, you've got splashes, you've got movement, and it all kind of makes it a little bit more challenging, but maybe that makes it more special when it comes together.”
Nick Green
"I wanted to encapsulate that feeling of warmth, of intimacy and of romance in a scene that was very close to my heart, as well as also really authentic, because I think that’s important."
