Lamingtons and pavs, eskis and hills hoists, tin and ed, wildlight and grenville · all Aussie icons of a sort. The first couple of pairings need no introduction (and will get none, not a word). About the last couple you'll hear more from the horse's mouth on the night. The first are young would-be icons; the last a little longer in the tooth.
Tin and Ed sound more like a book by Hergé but are actually the blokes behind tin&ed, the young Melbourne graphic design studio responsible for the off the wall identity for cult bag manufacturers' Crumpler. They describe their work as residing in the Îemotive space between the mundane and the obscure, the sinister and the childlike, the sarcastic and the earnest'.
Wildlight Photo Agency captures the best of real Australia in images. Grenville Turner, one of Wildlight's network of photographers, has exhibited widely here and abroad, worked with the leading advertising agencies and contributed to the big names of world magazine publishing. His recording of heat, light and distance and how these impact the people and wildlife that live in our remote places offers an insight into what makes up the Australian experience.
