Rich Gibson and Rose White won a “Golden Kleene” (Prixxx Arse Elektronika 2010) for their project “Personal Portraits of Australia”…
Most of us know about as much about the anatomy of our genitals as we do about the geography of Australia.
In both cases we see the landscape from a long distance, through a distorted cultural lens, and while we have a general idea that important things must be happening down there we don’t have a firm hand on the details.
We will be taking large images of the normally hidden, and then rescaling and overlaying those images with geographical data to let you answer questions like ‘if Texarkana is really the asshole of America, than where is America’s clitoris?’
And… first results are online!
