National Portrait Award Finalist 2012
.jpg)
Farewell my Son
This image was shot in FACEZ studio and a finalist in the National Portrait Awards in Canberra 2012.
The image, along with other finalists will hang in the National gallery for two months from the 19 March and then tour Australia for a further 10 months.
I'd like to thank PJ at Fitzgerald's Photo Labs for their advice and expertise in printing, Doug at Stewart's Fine Art Framers and Pack and Send for safe transport.
In particular, I'd like to thank my subjects, Narayani and Sean Palmer for their gift.
Narayani Palmer had asked me to photograph her and her son, Sean Palmer, the night before he left Australia for England for five years. Narayani is a single mother and Sean is her only child. They arrived a few minutes apart to be photographed. Narayani was upset and had been crying, Sean was aloof and not talking. They had been arguing. They stood before me, silent for several minutes, tears glistening in Narayani's eyes. Then Sean slowly stepped towards his mother, gently put an arm around her shoulders and said, "I'm sorry Mum". Narayani sobbed gently. This was Sean's final farewell.
