On Site is a selection of portraits, which reflect upon how the blind and vision impaired are represented in contemporary photography. This resulting corpus grew from the collaboration between the artist and Arielle, an Arizona State University student who responded to Connor’s advertisement. Arielle has been blind from birth, and spends a lot of time at airports. On Site is part of an ongoing research project for Connor.

Ang Connor is a Melbourne based artist studying her Masters in Fine Art by Research at the Victorian College of the Arts. In 2007 she was awarded the Kodak Salon Best Portrait at Centre for Contemporary Photography in Melbourne and was a finalist in the National Head-On Portrait Award at the Australian Centre for Photography in Sydney.
