“Kate Gollings rarely merely confirms appearances or follows the simple posturing repertoire of her subjects in their wish to confirm a desired public image. In order to open up the social encounter between photographer and subject, she has to negotiate, charm, challenge, co-opt — in short, all the things which photographers brave enough to tackle the portrait have to do to make their living and make their works.”

- Gael Newton, senior curator of photography at the National Gallery of Australia.
