Develop – group exhibition
Develop is MGA’s annual showcase of work by emerging photographic artists. The 10 photographs included in this exhibition represent a small selection from the vast pool of high-calibre work that was produced by graduates of bachelor degrees in Melbourne in 2022. The artists have been drawn from six universities, and the work is a celebration of the next generation of Australian photographers.
