Axis Mundi (Harry in the Window)

Semi-finalist Doug Moran Portrait Prize 2019

2400 Axis Mundi (Harry in the Window)

I had done several portraits of Harry’s brother Thomas where Harry was in the background – so when I asked if I could take some photos, he was ready with a variety of poses, all of his own making. His decision defined the composition, a centring of his world, framing a typical Brisbane backyard.

Oil on linen, 137 x 83 cm.
