‘In a portrait, you always leave part of yourself behind.’ Mary Ellen Mark, Photographer
The Lester Prize is one of Australia’s most recognised and prestigious fine art prizes, celebrating portraiture from artists across the country.
As WA Museum Boola Bardip exhibits The Lester Prize for the first time, a new digital projection from VJZoo will screen nightly until 17 November 2024 as part of the Illuminate program.
Portraits employs AI to bring to life a selection of past and present The Lester Prize finalist works on the Museum’s Old Gaol, and explores the potential of portraiture to reveal deep truths about ourselves.
