Six hours drive west of Brisbane, Roma is the gateway to the Outback and Carnarvon Gorge, famed for its cattle saleyards and country hospitality.
Fourteen photography students spent a week in Roma as part of an in-field excursion to explore regional Queensland – a program the QCA has run for the past 25 years.
The theme of this year’s project was “Community Life: An Inner Perspective, Connecting through Story”.
The result is a stunning documentary photography exhibition, “Roma Revealed”, on show at the ABC Studios at South Bank until 17 August.
Students captured a range of stories, including life on the land, the Men’s Shed and the local knitting circle.
