Summary of Project:
‘Radiata’ is an historical archive that explores the mythology of the timber industry through a collection of selected newspaper images from the Tumut timber boom of the 1980s. The work navigates between historical propaganda and banal vernacular, questioning the reliance of rural townships upon resource-based industries.
