Abstract
The article analyses the work of Brisbane-based photographer Martin Smith in relation to ideas of male subjectivity and the notion of loss. It contends that Smith's work exempifies a notion of masculinity that uses layering and interpenetration of image and medium to represent a masculine subjectivity characterised by contingency and intersubjective awareness.
