Interview: Ricky Maynard

I got very lucky and had a chat with the fabulously clever and astonishingly nice Ricky Maynard about his exhibition at Bett Gallery, No More Than What You See 1993 - 2023, a series of photographs of incarcerated Aboriginal people.

This is an exceptional, and crucial exhibition. You need to see it, as it’s more relevant now in 2023 than when it was first mounted in 1991. Ricky is an important artist, creating images that sear with their honest revelation.

I’m fortunate to spoken to him.

Thank you:
To Ricky Maynard, of course; and a big one goes to the fine folk at Bett Gallery for co-ordinating the interview with Ricky and allowing me to use their stock room to record in (you might hear Murray St traffic in the background).
