Interview
Tracey Moffatt
Interview
Nia : Tell me about yourself?
Tracey : Well, Im 53 years of age, Im an Australian artist. My art design is based on photography and video. I hold a degree in visual communications from the Queensland College of art, graduating in 1982.
Nia : Describe your work style?
Tracey : In many of my works, I use my body as a model to create my own work to express myself in my own images to come across my own style in art.
Nia : That's awesome Tracey, congratulations on being award the 2013 Australia Council Visual Arts Award!!
Tracey : Thank you! It is a great honour for me. My heart went boom boom with excitement when I got the phone call. I was so thrilled to be recognised and up there with talented important names in the Australian Art World.
Nia : Do you still visit your old study colleges?
Tracey : I do, but not all the time
Nia : What do you think the secret to success could mean?
Tracey : The secret to success and sanity could mean to me is to say "No" to everything. The only thing artist really have to do is try to get on with their new work. It's always got to be the next 'thing', the next damn 'thing' ... this takes a lot of concentration. For me this is always a struggle.
Nia : Wow, do you usually have much time to yourself?
Tracey : I am always getting sidetracked and I want to socialise all the time as Sydney is so gorgeous and interesting. Then when I stay home to try to work all I do is watch tele - is six hours of tele a night too much ?
Nia : I heard you went to New York, do you miss that place?
Tracey : I do and I don't. I worship New York and it's energy and I have great friends there. I do think that it is important for Australian artists to go there and experience the art scene as it really is super out of this world. But after I lived there for 12 years and despite its great arts and culture Spiritually is was not to be enough for me. It was the pull of nature and land that drove me back here.

Alien Letter
Dear Alien
Earth is a planet where us human beings have been living on for thousands of years. In this letter I, Nia Inangaro is going to explain my community to you which is about family. A family means to me as having a group consisting two parents and their children living in the same household. To have a relation between human beings is having the same blood type. This means when a female meets a male then they have a way of making babies / children together which makes them a whole family. This means the female and male become parents. For example I'm the middle child in my family and theirs five of us, I have two brothers and sisters, both older and younger. My parents are still together meaning some other parents can separate later in life. There are different cultures on this earth there are so many I don't even know where to start. My culture background is Cook Island, Tahitian, Chinese. My mums side of the family, her father is from Aitutaki, Cook Island, and her mother is from Tahiti. My dads side of the family, his father is from Rarotonga and is part Chinese, and his mother is from Mangaia.

Evaluation for your photograph
What's working?
- rule of thirds are in line.
- used a fast shutter
- used a high ISO because it was outside.
What's not working?
- the sky is a bit way too white
- the bottom left corner,
What next?
- could make the sky more detailed with the clouds
