artist statement
For
Stephanie, photography is a passion that encompasses two key dimensions,
a medium for expression and a matter of record to be experienced by others.
She is drawn to, and has documented cultures such as Tibet, Ghana, India,
Cambodia, Nepal, Myanmar and the remote areas of Australia in order to
capture both the unique and the universal.
Stephanie is an Australian
who currently resides in Los Angeles. For the past few years, she has
been pursuing her ongoing Australian Aboriginal project documenting two
remote communities – Palm Island situated off the coast of far north
Queensland and Yiyili, located in the Kimberly region at the top of Western
Australia. Through her images, it is Stephanie’s desire to
raise awareness of the Aboriginal people and their culture in their quest
for recognition, respect and reconciliation.
