bianca
I met Bianca at the Yabun festival in Camperdown. Here she is performing a spiritual dance which involved water. If you look carefully, you will see small water droplets around her face which barely catch the light. The original picture was shot against a darker background which had some distracting elements so I removed them. I then converted to black and white and applied a blue filter to darken the skin tones. Finally, I adjusted the contrasts to achieve this effect.
Bianca is a proud Cabrogal woman of the Darug Nation.
The Darug are a group descending from an indigenous Australian people of that name, which shares strong ties of kinship and, in pre-colonial times, survived as skilled hunters in family groups or clans scattered throughout much of what is modern-day Sydney.
