Sydney Life

Sydney is a captivating canvas, a city of varied moods and colours, a place of both darkness and light.

This year’s stunning Sydney Life exhibition shows us the many sides of the city through the eyes of some of our most exciting photographers. Their striking large-scale images are on display in the beautiful leafy central walkway of Hyde Park North – a unique location for a unique and much loved exhibition.

Sandy Edwards (Creative Producer, Arthere and Curator, Stills Gallery), Robert McFarlane (photographer and writer), and Ace Bourke (curator) chose 22 finalists from 500 entries. Using portraiture, landscape, the staged and the candid, these photographs capture moments of playfulness, humour, melancholy and peace.
