Natalie Cunningham, Suspended Animation (PORTRAIT 2022)

This series depicts the frozen state of childhood during the Melbourne lockdown - our children's passions, hopes and dreams have been in an ice age for two years. Suspended Animation means that these are not destroyed, but being preserved. As they start to see and experience the outside world, they will slowly thaw, little by little bringing that passion back to life.
