This presentation also speaks to the power of the photographic image in Western culture. What I mean is that it reaffirms and fortifies it, as does the Museum itself which of course bases its practice on all that which is tangible, physical and visible. The problem with that is that indigeneity is often none of those things, so one form of visibility comes at the expense of acknowledging that which is rendered invisible.
