In the last couple of months, a series of major solo exhibitions featuring celebrated female photographers have arrived on Australian shores in quick succession. It’s perhaps no coincidence that portraiture sits at the core of these prominent photographic practices, where female photographers explore a breadth of topics ranging from unconventional relationships to social equality.
China-born and New York-based photographer Pixy Liao’s solo show, Experimental Relationship opened at the Centre for Contemporary Photography (CCP) on 21 April and runs until 9 July. Liao visited the Melbourne space shortly after taking part in the inaugural Powerhouse Photography program, and was involved in a group show at Sydney’s White Rabbit Gallery.
