Carol Jerrems (1949–1980) is one of Australia’s most important photographers. On her recent exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery, art historian Sasha Grishin writes:
“While Jerrems documented the world around her and was rarely separated from her camera, she was not strictly a documentary photographer. Her narratives are generally posed and carefully constructed, the multiplicity of photographs of the same subject demonstrates the deliberateness of her approach.”

just saw that 1976 Sharpie pic, crazy how fashion and trends evolve, huh? Low-key think we might’ve gone downhill since then tho
i’m more of a crayon person myself
Oi, we’re tough as nails & don’t give a damn ’bout what society thinks.
What is a ‘sharpie couple’ and why are they significant?
