Argileh at Wedding Cake Rock is a satirical exhibition which nods to culture, tradition and ethnicity in the digital age. The exhibition explores the intersection of experimental and documentary style photography through a series of tableaux; constructed from surreal appropriations of Western Sydney neighbourhoods. The works are a reflection of both personal experience and an ongoing engagement with local personas, neighbourhoods, cultural motifs and trends.
