The Head On Student Award recognises innovations in photography by Australian K—12 Students: the next generation of Australia’s emerging artists. This edition of the Head On Student Prize demonstrates an experimental approach to the photographic medium. Influenced by social media, digital photography and traditional photographic processes, these images provide us with a dynamic view into the future of contemporary photography.
