Abby Storey is a Melbourne-based contemporary photographer. Her exhibition ‘Of the Land’ looks at the complex and sometimes paradoxical relationships between humanity and the natural world.
The series of work forms both a portrait of a man and an exploration of the life he leads. Terry, like his forebears, is a farmer, hunter, dog trainer and man of the land. His is a world of animal husbandry but also animal slaughter, with home-kill meat being a staple of the family diet.
