Georgina Cue explores female identity through self-portraiture and performance in a new photographic series for PHOTO 2021.

Cue is known for her ongoing interest in theatrical staging and narrative in photography. Referencing Dada, experimental film, constructivist theatre and graffiti culture, Georgina uses DIY materials such as cardboard, spray paint and tape to create large-scale, vibrant and colourful stages. These theatrical stages then become the background for photographs in which the artist often features as the central protagonist.

PHOTO Australia respectfully acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands upon which we work and live, and the rich and diverse Indigenous cultures across what is now called Australia. For over 60,000 years, Indigenous arts and culture have thrived on this sacred land, and we honour Elders and cultural leaders past and present. This was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.
