On Friday 3 May, Year 10 photography students visited Tarrawarra Art Gallery to view the current exhibition by acclaimed Australian indigenous artist, photographer and filmmaker Tracey Moffatt called ‘Body Remembers’. Moffatt’s series of very large ochre-coloured photographs explore her matrilineal history of domestic servitude and the broader experience of colonisation.
Students also viewed famous Australian paintings and drawings by artists such as Rick Amor, Joy Hester, Jeffery Smart, Russell Drysdale, Rosalie Gascoigne, Charles Blackman and others, engaging in discussion and exploring how artists present message and meaning within their works.
