'Dual/Duel is a collaborative artists? book by Brook Andrew and Trent Walter, drawn predominantly fromthe State Library of Victoria?s pictures collection, with interventions from the artists? personal archives. Thebook?s form is a series of juxtaposed image propositions whose assembly forms new relational narrativesconnecting the artists? cultural perspectives of Wiradjuri/Sri Lankan/Celtic/European with topics ofconflict, immigration, hope, confusion, complicity and power amongst image, shape, trickery, concealmentand shadow play. This practice of image juxtaposition is prevalent in Andrew?s and Walter?s artistic andcultural practices which re-define how the world can be reordered and seen. This perspective shiftsideas around building memories, timelines and making visible often devastating histories in ways that canhopefully heal: to imagine new ways to engage and acknowledge. Dual/Duel creates a new space for looking through often cliché, but specific, images of power andnarrative. The artists? book simultaneously creates and examines pictorial connections that explore the implications of these associations to form new narratives about how we might begin to explain thehistories they conjure.Dual/Duel is the result of a Georges Mora Fellowship awarded to the artists in 2014. The publicationincludes an interview with Maxine Briggs, Koori Librarian at the State Library of Victoria (SLV), Australia,who worked closely with the artists on Australian Indigenous protocols that apply to SLV photographiccollections.' - the publisher.
