A collaboration between visual artist Tony Albert and choreographer Stephen Page, Moving Targets is a multimedia installation which pays homage to the vulnerability and strength of young Aboriginal men. Set to a soundscape by David Page and screened around different parts of a stripped-back, beaten-up car, the choreography explores notions of identity and masculinity, as well as addressing more complex, globally resonant issues concerning racial profiling and miscarriages of justice perpetrated against young black men.

The confronting scene was inspired by the shooting of two Aboriginal teenagers by police in King’s Cross in April 2012 and was the trigger for Moving Targets, the centrepiece of the 24 Frames Per Second exhibition at Carriageworks. (smh.com.au)
