Narelle Autio and Trent Parke In Conversation

Trent Parke and Narelle Autio are renowned for both their practice spanning photography and film.

Experimenting with light, movement and chemical processes, Parke and Autio make visible phenomena typically hidden from sight.

In this conversation, they expand on their photographic trajectories: from years shared under the stars in the Australian outback, to Autio's studies of the undersea world and Parke's most recent work inspired by NASA’s Golden Record.
