Photograph - George Mifsud, George Mifsud, Larundel No. 13 [Seat Under Trees], 2005

Artists statement

"At the age of 20, I brought my first film camera, a solid, heavy and much loved Minolta XGM. Photographing mostly in black and white, I’ve been taking portraits, capturing landscapes and documenting people’s lives and rituals ever since. And now, more than 35 years later, I’m still excited to be on this journey with photography – alas, no longer with that Minolta.

What attracts me to photography is the medium’s ability to show us the ordinary in an extraordinary way.

My work has been acquired by the City of Darebin and the State Library of Victoria. I have been long and short listed for several major prizes, including the Moran Photography Award, the Head on Award
and the National Photographic Portrait Prize."
