National Photographic Portrait Prize 2014 Finalist
26-year-old Iraqi twins, Ghassan and Mrwan, asylum seekers waiting for temporary protection visas, in a Shepparton group home. As Shias in Irag, the suffering of beatings and threats drove them to take the boat then five months in detention. Refused their first application, they wait to see the Merit Review Tribunal, in limbo unable to work or study english.
The National Photographic Portrait Prize exhibition is selected from a national field of entries that reflect the distinctive vision of Australia's aspiring and professional portrait photographers and the unique nature of their subjects.
