M. Ellen Burns – Skimpies
Skimpies by M. Ellen Burns is a bold photographic exploration of regional Australia through the lens of Kalgoorlie’s skimpies – barmaids who serve drinks in lingerie. Shot over five years, this photobook captures moments of strength, humour, vulnerability and power in the daily lives of these women. Intimate and disarming, Skimpies reframes perceptions of labour, performance, and identity within the context of Australia’s mining towns.
