Over het boek
In January 2025 I attended the Canberra Games Convention (CANCON) at the Exhibition Park in Canberra (EPIC), Mitchell to observe and photograph. CANCON has been going for many years in Canberra and takes place in this location traditionally on a weekend nearest to the public holiday Australia Day (26th January). Broadly speaking, the activities at CANCON were divided into three sections:
a. Miniature Figurine tournament games
b. Board tournament Games
c. Game Traders.

By far the largest gaming contingent at this Convention was the miniature figurine tournament games. Miniature figurine tournament games are essentially a men's preserve, with hardly any women playing: this work highlights this observation and presents some preliminary commentary.

Stephanie Alexandria Parker
Canberra, Australia

Stephanie Alexandria Parker is an Australian photomedia artist currently living in Canberra, Australia. In 2021 she was awarded a PhD in Visual Arts from the Australian National University. Her work in photographic media explores the constructed realities we create for ourselves. She has explored this theme in work on urban environments, portraiture, and dance. In urban environments she is fascinated by the constructed reality that is an urban landscape. She sees landscape essentially modeled for economic and social purposes to allow maximum human utility. Roads are a particular interest as they are a key to understanding how we think about an urban landscape For further information see www.stephaniep.com
