Four first nations women from Normanton in Queensland’s North have been honoured in the 2021 Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize, through a series depicting the life of indigenous stockwomen in outback Australia.
The series by Sydney photographer David Prichard took out the top spot from over five thousand submissions, and features Kurtijar elder Gloria Campbell, who recounts her early life as a cattle station cook as hard work from morning to night.
Prichard says he aimed to produce portraits that were dignified, strong and beautiful, and described telling the stories of these women as a privilege.
