The Crossing


Crossing, originally named Reflection is a project I worked on during a workshop with Magnum Photos and ACP (Australian Centre of Photography).


Every day in Sydney hundreds of people take a “Ferry” as a mode of public transport to go to work, shopping, etc. These vessels operate on Sydney Harbour and the connecting Parramatta River. In this project, I would like to take a closer look into this journey to see and document how this daily trip feels? What do people do during this journey? And get a feel for this rather specific type of public transport (Although many cities have ferries as a means of public transport but this type of public transport is not as common as bus, metro, and tram).


Overall, I would like to take you on a trip in a “Ferry” on the Sydney Harbour.


** This project was part of a group projection in Burning Rose, Sydney in 2018.
