Planning for this project is underway in collaboration with the community of Brewarrina. This remote township located in North Western NSW will generate one of the most distinctive portraits to date.

Australia’s largest outback city, Kalgoorlie Boulder WA, is the focus of Facing Australia’s next project. Projected image release date December 06.

Over 1500 inner Sydney residents have collaborated with Facing Australia to create a series of composite portraits that will represent the iconic suburbs of Redfern, Haymarket, The Rocks, Millers Point and Surry Hills. The final works will be launched during the City of Sydney’s major cultural event Art & About from the 6 - 14 October.

Junction Oval May - 2006: On one of those crisp Melbourne mornings all 44 players from the Melbourne fc posed for the camera so that a composite portrait of the team could be created.

Facing Australia view the image as one of those great collaborations where sport collides and combines with the arts - in a very positive manner. The image portrays One Team - One Face, encapsulating the very heart of Australian Rules. The image is a metaphor for what they do every weekend, they play as one.
