InsideOut Project: James Devine
James Devine is a local photographer who often works in clubs. In these portraits (which were pasted on the side of the Dog and Duck in Hindley St), he’s captured three local DJs without any of the promotion that they might otherwise do. These portraits give you a glimpse of their lives outside of the decks.
InsideOut Project: Michael Ziebarth
Two grandmothers, his father and someone he cares for. Michael Ziebarth chose to tell the stories of the older people that have made a difference to his life, capping off the portraits with a quick quote from each of them from during the shoot. These portraits were pasted up inside the UniSA West campus.
