The picturesque village of La Gacilly in Brittany, western France, is home to an annual photo festival focusing on the environment and social issues – and this year, Australia is the guest of honour. Among 11 Australian photographers featured is Bobbi Lockyer, who is keen to share her indigenous heritage and the importance of protecting her native land.

Hailing from the Pilbara region of Western Australia, Lockyer has taken three flights and a train to get to La Gacilly and is excited to discover the layout of her first formal exhibition in France.
