art + soul, episode three: Christian Thompson
art + soul 2 episode three aired 22 July at 8:30pm on ABC1.
'The peripatetic Christian Thompson also gathers natural materials for his art, using his own body in his intriguing installations and haunting photographs. He has studied in Amsterdam and at Oxford University (where his photographs replaced portraits of prime ministers and cardinals for a time) but he still feels the strong pull to his family home in Barcaldine, Queensland. “My art allows me to hang on to the essence of belonging,” he says.'
