Sights Unseen: Pictures by Michael Riley

The late Michael Riley is one of the most important contemporary Indigenous visual artists of the past two decades. Over his 20-year career he created an impressive body of work ranging from black and white portraiture to film, video and large-scale digital photography. This two-part special is an intimate account of Michael’s short but prolific life. Riley not only looked at the world through a different lens, he wanted the world to view what he saw. His films and photographs challenge perceptions of Indigenous life, particularly in eastern Australia.
