trib(ute) #1
White ute, on back streets of the CBD, Melbourne
The first time I visited Australia it was quite apparent that the ‘ute’ was a national icon. Trying to understand this passion further myself and friend (Simon) began documenting these beasts. Capturing the loved ones, used ones, and the quite frankly weird ones. The ‘roo bars’, bumper stickers and aerials that accessorise the exteriors of this symbolic vehicle.
