Since I exhibited these images a few years ago I've had lots of people visit the Kill City page on my website and so I thought I'd try to re-create what the exhibition space was like. I say 'try' because the images measured almost a metre square so you don't quite get the same effect here. I've also combined the images with the same music - Massive Attack's Angel - I had running on a loop throughout the two-week show. You can read a lot more about each character on my website but essentially I photographed 12 people who'd all played a part in Melbourne's deadly underworld war. One of them, Des "Tuppence" Moran, was shot dead (his sister-in-law was found guilty of organising the hit) in a cafe in Melbourne a few years after I took his portrait. Click on the thumbnail below to watch the short video. And don't forget to turn the sound up. Enjoy!
