2020 Vision

Head On Foundation invited NSW photographers to submit images that show how they and their communities rose to the challenges of 2020. We encouraged reflection on recovery, resilience and rebuilding and hopes for the future from as many NSW regions as possible to gain a diverse view from around the state.
2020 Vision takes a poignant look back at those shared struggles, the collective resilience and the complex recovery process experienced by Australian communities in NSW. We invited photographers of all genres, and judged the work anonymously, in line with our mission to provide a fair and equal platform for all artists to create, showcase and gain exposure for their work.
