We acknowledge and pay respect to the Traditional Owners of the lands upon which our campus is situated, the people of the Boon Wurrung and Woi Wurrung, who have created art, made music and told their stories here for thousands of generations. We also acknowledge and extend our respect to the Traditional Owners of all lands on which our work is viewed, shared and enjoyed, and to all Elders, past, present and emerging.

I ask myself what it means to be in a room with myself. I ask you what it feels like to be in the room with me. I ask the room, what does it feels like to have us both in the room with you. I ask what it means to photograph the space between us. It is is an act of love and, of command. To be viewed, an act of submission and an act of authority. Working with the space in between us, I attempt to capture it as an apex and release it as a reference. I’m looking at you, looking at me, looking at you, looking at someone else.
