Bindi Cole’s work Crystal has been acquired for the National Gallery of Australia collection.
Bindi Cole is a provocative photographer whose wild take on contemporary Indigenous and non-Indigenous culture has attracted popular and critical acclaim. Of self-confessed English, Jewish and Wathaurung descent, she explores the disconnection between people and how culture defines them via glossy, theatrical images.
Crystal is part of Cole’s Sistagirls series, which comprises 11 highly stylised portraits of Tiwi Island transgender men.
