Project street 7:30, Fox darkroom and Gallery and wall of women (Wow) Ballarat Bienale 2023
Melbourne photographers Craig Wetjen and Steve Scalone teamed up to create a unique one day event, Project Street 7:30. This unique collaboration of 30 photographers each created a distinctive image of Melbourne street life, with only seven hours to shoot, edit, and print their image, culminating in the exhibition of the best images taken on the same day.
Prints were auctioned on the night. By the end of the evening, almost $12,000 was raised for the organisation, Kids Under Cover, to help the homeless of Melbourne.
In recent years, female street photographers have risen.
This is due in part to the explosion of social media as a more accessible and democratic showcase for photography, and the consequential formation of all-women groups like Unexposed, @womeninstreet and Women Street Photographers.
So the question is worth asking: do candid street photos made by women differ to those made by men? Does our gaze differ significantly from the male gaze? Is it less harsh? Do we also sexualise and diminish women, either intentionally or unintentionally? Or is our gaze more complex, respectful, tender and aesthetically beautiful? Or does the female gaze move beyond this arguably predictable description? And can it help redefine and reshape how society sees women?
A Wall of Women by Women is – in part – a response to those questions.
Curated by Julia Coddington and Rebecca Wiltshire, the exhibition included 220 images by artists from the Unexposed Collective.
