Abstract
When photographs in museum collections are involved in community research, our understanding of them as representations is radically altered. Drawing on archival research and fieldwork in West and South Australia, this paper presents a number of examples of the metonymic “presence in absence” of the past through photography that indigenous people experience when connecting with archival imagery.
