Summary of project: Belco Pride is a series of photographs that explores how belonging, connection and identity can emerge from a specific place. The place depicted here being the 25 northernmost suburbs of Canberra known as Belconnen, or to us locals, as ‘Belco’. Within this body of work Lee Grant seeks to reveal the intricacies of living in suburbs that may be dismissed by many but cherished by some. A place where its residents take ownership of where they are from, a place that can engender a sense of pride so strong it is literally written onto the body.
