City Frames: Visual Narratives of duel cities

2002-23 Melbourne

Having lived in both Sydney and Melbourne for an equal amount of time, I’ve been fortunate to witness the dynamic juxtaposition of old and new that each city offers. Both cities, though sharing some similarities, stand far apart in terms of culture and way of thinking. Sydney and Melbourne have, for me, served as the perfect canvases to capture the unique beauty each possesses. From the iconic landmarks of Sydney to the eclectic charm of Melbourne’s laneways, these two cities have been more than just places of residence; they have been inspiring subjects for my lens, allowing me to document the distinct personalities and stories etched into their landscapes.
