Joyce Evans
'I don't know what sort of photographer I am, but I try to be an honest one.'
The career of Joyce Evans OAM (1929–2019) spans more than six decades of landscape, documentary, and portrait photography.
Her work is preserved through the Library's Joyce Evans Archive, one of our largest collections of images by a contemporary Australian photographer, and contains images which capture essential aspects of Australian life.
This collection-in-focus, that ran from 4 April to 3 December 2023, displayed highlights from the Library's Joyce Evans Archive.
Read more about Evans' life in the NLA Publishing title, Joyce Evans by Sasha Grishin.
