Overview of this event
This powerful and timely photographic exhibition documents the long-term social and physical consequences of the Great War on Australian society. The exhibition is comprised of 25 thought-provoking montage images accompanied with poignant quotes sourced from Australia’s Archives.
Through thousands of dedicated cemeteries and memorials, we rightly remember the men who died in the battles of the Great War. With no such commemorative sites dedicated to the war-widows, grieving mothers and traumatised returning soldiers who endured great personal suffering from the war in the years after the Armistice, their plight has been largely forgotten.
Through its focus on Australia’s own post-war experience, Recovering The Past raises the profile of these people, and in doing so, has given them a long overdue and much deserved voice.
