Artist Statement
This series explores the political and environmental consequences of climate change for farming families of the Ungarie district of New South Wales. The series resonates with but also seeks to complicate stereotyping of primary producers as stoic ‘battlers’, particularly as these play out in popular constructions of national identity.
Originally developed as a part of a larger series, the four images selected for this exhibition, were each taken for very different, but equally personal, reasons due the artist’s connection to the district as well as her vast amount of research into the Australian agricultural industry.
