HIJACKED VOLUME 2 |
Building on the considerable success of the inaugural publication Hijacked 1 – Australia and America this volume is a again an expansive photographicanthology, that compels us to consider two socially divergent and disparate photographic nations. Germany and Australia are juxtaposed to stimulate conversation, suggest connection and invite deconstruction. Hijacked 2 showcases the diverse talents and perspectives of 32 contemporary German and Australian photographers. With a focus on the depiction and representation of the young, the boundary-riding, and fringe-dwelling, Hijacked 2 is layered with imagery both evocative and confronting, dreamlike and rousing.
