Portrait of Julie Hewitt
Digital photographic print
63 x 42 cm
About the Artwork
A derelict Mobil garage in the Perth hills provides the background for the wearing of the red dress. Out of context with the faded horse logo, it seems to awaken the past and provides a new energy. Julie, a perfect fit, embraces and completes the tying together of the old and the new.
