SITHOM is a street photography exhibition by the members of the Australian Association of Street Photographers, exploring the decisive and often indecisive moments that occur in the gritty, yet beautiful city of Melbourne.

"These photos are not just street style; they capture ephemeral moments – raw, unrehearsed and completely unique. Shot in the heart of Melbourne is an artistic candid homage to the people that bring this city to life each day." – Concrete Playground
