Living Room

A catalogue of assorted Sydneysiders pose for the camera “at home”. “Home is where to sleep” - Why do people live where they do? “Home is an extension of your personality” - Do people have a choice in the way they live? What does “home” mean? A photographic mosaic of faces and places, “Living Room” reveals surprising values and attitudes.
