Disruption is defined as “a break of interruption in the normal course or continuation of an activity or process.” There is no doubt that 2020 has been a year filled with a record amount of uncertainty, challenge and interruption.
Published through the Queensland College of Art’s Blur – QCA Photography Club in conjunction with transmedia storytelling publication The ARGUS, this exhibition seeks to unite works across a variety of mediums focusing on multiple themes and experiences of Disruption. In Greek mythology Argus Panoptes was a hundred-eyed giant, a watchful guardian. His name, ‘Panoptes’ meant ‘the all-seeing one’.
This year’s edition of the ARGUS hopes to imbue the publication with this sentiment – the ARGUS is all seeing, bringing to the public impactful local and international stories not often seen in mainstream media. The Blurr Club is a student run photographic club with the aim of connecting up and coming photographers at the Queensland College of Art, Griffith University.
The ARGUS is a non-profit, student run, multi-platform visual journalism magazine that engages Bachelor of Documentary and Photojournalism students in their third year at the Queensland College of Art, Griffith University, Australia.
