Tracksuits of St Marys

Overview

What could be more iconic in the prolific landscape of Aussie fashion than the ubiquitous trackie (except maybe a pair of ugg’s and a T-shirt that says ‘The Big Banana Down Under’)? In his debut exhibition, renowned fashion photographer Harold David showcases the comfiest of all apparel as seen on the real life folk of St Marys in Sydney’s western suburbs.

The collection of 70 images titled Tracksuits of St Marys is an authentic yet understated portrayal of a very raw and real suburban landscape. Set to open at CarriageWorks in August, Tracksuits of St Marys is a chronicle of the everyman, a barefaced portrait of suburbia and an ode to the beloved trackie in all it’s renditions.
