Overview

Australian's are, by and large, a beach-loving people — and as such, we feel a close affinity with the ocean. But while the water means relaxation and leisure for many, for others it symbolises something very different. And for asylum seekers fleeing persecution, the journey across the sea represents a chance at a better life. With that in mind, Enough Space in Prahran is turning its eyes to the water.

Curated by writer and photographer Victoria Hannan, this charity exhibition will showcase 118 photographs of the ocean, donated by 21 different photographers from seven countries around the world. Each print will offer a different perspective on the salt and sand, and all will be available to purchase. All proceeds from sales will go to the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre, who work to protect and empower asylum seekers living in the community.
