Description Sue Healey's extraordinary ON VIEW paints a series of video and live portraits of five Australian dance artists; Martin del Amo, Shona Erskine, Benjamin Hancock, Raghav Handa and Nalina Wait, as well as video portraits of the legendary Dame Lucette Aldous and Professor Shirley McKechnie AO. Healey's artistry dissects the body with an analytical intimacy, exploring the many dimensions of portraiture and the politics of identity through a provocative dialogue between live performers and their cinematic selves.
