David Rosetzky: Double Exposures
Publisher: M.33, 2020
120 pp, soft cover, gatefold.
A limited-edition book brings together 45 photographs by artist David Rosetzky accompanied by an essay  Dr Shaune Lakin, Senior Curator of Photography at the National Gallery of Australia, and a Q & A between David Rosetzky and fellow artist Hoda Afshar.

Rosetzky’s use of the double-exposure results in a single, combined image that is created through a process of chance – and the random placement of pictorial elements within the frame. This process enables the artist a fluid and hybrid approach to representation – and is suggestive of relative and shifting states of being and ways of looking that extends beyond conventional portrait formats. This ongoing series explores new ways of representing queer, non-binary, and marginal identities through photography.

Living Art
CoVA, The University of Melbourne, 2023
128 pp, soft cover, gatefold.
Living  Art has been created as a keepsake to document and honour the activities of the Dookie Arts Group in collaboration with the Centre of Visual Art (CoVA) at the University of Melbourne. The case studies in the book share the intention to observe and nutrutre the connecting strands between art and the living world. All the projects illustrated in the book are situated in a town in North-Central Victoria, Australia, called Dookie - a place largely defined by agriculture over the last 50 years. Projects and case studies include: The Seedbank, Dookie Earthed, Dinner for the Future; and artists: Helen Kely, Janie Christopher, Liz Evans, Andrew Sands and Penny Algar.
