EXHIBITION INFO

(ab)original is about identity.

The notion of Aboriginality is often confined to stereotypical images of 'real' blackfellas living in the desert, or surviving on the fringes of society.

Many urban Aboriginal people do not fit these stereotypes, but still retain a strong association to land, culture and family.

My images ask the viewer to reframe romanticised images of Aboriginality and think about them in a contemporary urban environment.
