Through my child’s eyes chronicles the chapter of Lisa Murray’s life when she was diagnosed with stage four breast cancer just six weeks before her surrogate baby was born. New life and near-death momentarily sat side by side.
The series is composed of reworked photographs taken initially by her five-year-old son, Griffin Murray-Johnston, paired with Lisa’s current reflections of the time.
Lisa Murray is an award-winning lens-based artist living and practising on Wurundjeri Land in Naarm (Melbourne).
Inspired by her background in Early Childhood Education, Lisa’s work centres around everyday life, in particular, her relationship with her children.
