Amanda Williams - The Alpine Moth | PHOTO 2021 International Festival of Photography: The Truth,
2021 | Metro Tunnel Creative Program | Royal Botanic Gardens, Anzac Station precinct, Melbourne
This project is inspired by resting sites of the Bogong moth (aka the Alpine moth) in Victoria’s North East Alpine Region. Due to climate change and urban development along their migration route, moth numbers have been declining drastically. Williams sees the moth’s fate as an allegory of the times we live in.
