Prof Marcia Langton talks about the process of having her portrait made by Brook Andrew in this video (link in image as well)



Andrew worked with master print maker Trent Walter to make 14 elements that were brought together as a final collage.

BA: it's believable but it's not; I didn't want it to be a defining portrait'
wanted 'to capture her consciousness'

ML: 'a meta statement about the portrait of an Aborigine'
