National Photographic Portrait Prize 2023 Finalist
Anne Clarke is a young Miriuwung women from far north Western Australia. She lives on a small farm with her mum and sister, just outside the remote town of Kununurra. This portrait shows Anne in spurs and a LeBron James basketball singlet. Anne's dream to work in the pastoral industry reflects a long tradition of Aboriginal stockwomen; her LeBron James singlet a nod to the growing influence of American culture. A complex mix of the past and present.
The exhibition is selected from a national field of entries, reflecting the distinctive vision of Australia's aspiring and professional portrait photographers and the unique nature of their subjects.
