His photographs go beneath the surface, they scratch the perfect facades of the suburbs of Australia and explore the idea of isolation, dislocation, ties, family communications, suspicions and fears and how all these ideas collide in the Australian \"suburbia\". Scenes of inside and outside ordinary everyday life are rendered with extraordinary detail. Meticulous work behind the scenes, a very accurate casting and a perfect mise en scene, create beautifully executed photographs working on the disparity between the reality shown and felt; between what is depicted and what is remembered.
\u201cWhen we hear the word suburbia we are at once filled with ideas and imagery that contradicts. On one hand visions of model homes, spacious yards, and the obligatory Hills Hoist [for washing] come to mind. But soon those thoughts of safe homogenized family utopias gave way to our fears, suspicions and all is not quite right. The \u201cAustralian Dream\u201d is the dream of a suburban quarter acre block. The \u201cAustralian Dream\u201d is just that - a dream - and for many reasons that I explore in my work, one that is slipping away from most peoples\u2019 reach,\u201d explains Kozka.
Pauline Anastasiou and Bronek Kozka, first-generation Australians - Cypriot father and Greek mother for her, Polish father and English mother for him - investigate the concept, partly true and partly mythical, of how memory can confuse but also affirm its construction of the lived reality. If on one side the \"Australian dream\" is broken, on the other that same \"dream\" wants and needs desperately and tenaciously to be kept alive.<\/p>\n
