There is something satisfyingly serendipitous about the similarities between photographers Simon Harsent and Sean Izzard. They first met more than 25 years ago and discovered they had been born on the same day in the same year – just six hours separating them. Well, that and 17,000 miles. A shared sensibility led to an immediate and long-standing friendship and a close working relationship that saw the pair founding the POOL Collective in 2008.
Now exhibiting together for the first time, these ‘brothers from another mother’ present Fifty/50, featuring portraits taken over the past 12 months. The harnessing of their individual talents provides us with a stunning and perfectly fitting celebration of a unique bond.
Australia's world-leading photography festival once again filters photography down to its finest. The great thing is that Head On's main venues at Bondi and Paddington are just a bus ride away.
