There is a possibility that a number of photographers in Adelaide will join together for a group show in the Fringe Festival in FotoFreo12, which runs from March to April next year. Expressions of interest have been called under the auspices of Atkins Technicolour.

I do know what the work will be ---given that the grounds for photographic practice today clearly stretch beyond art, and encompass the encroachments of cinema, photojournalism and advertising. I will submit work--probably some kind of urban documentary. The current revival of interest in documentary photography is probably a reaction to the sensationalising reportage of the media — a concern by the public to see significant events 'for themselves' .

This documentary photography doesn't replicate the visual language of these corporate or private media, as it is interested in the way photography circulates reflections of contemporary life. It acknowledges the contexts beyond the cultural arena, the reality of their work lies between the traditional legacy of photography (its transparency or relationship to psychological conditions and time and memory, and meaning for collective history and social knowledge) and the question of how to distinguish its role in current reality.
