“Lifestyle Choices” at Storyology

June 20th, 2015

“Lifestyle Choices” was made specifically for the 2015 Walkley Storyology Slide Night event. Images from my archives were formed into a photographic narrative around the audio of Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott’s infamous quote about indigenous ‘Lifestyle Choices’ and an intriguing audio track – “Exximent” by Ilario Vannucchi from the album “Sleep Stones”.
