With issue 4, OVER Journal continues to foster critical conversations around contemporary photographic practices. With contributions from artists and writers spanning six continents, the issue explores themes around representation and the evolving role of the image in shaping history and identity, articulating new representations that challenge historical legacies. Featured works include a range of topics investigating representation, from Basil Al-Rawi’s challenge of the narrative representation of Iraq and its diaspora to Tashiya de Mel’s investigation into visual history of Dutch colonisation in Sri Lanka; from Marianne Keating’s work on shared colonial and revolutionary histories of lands to Jakob Ganslmeier and Ana Zibelnik’s analysis of extremist visual language online, and from Morganna Magee’s research into the historical representation of the kangaroo providing a framework by which we can assess the treatment and narrative building on non-white bodies in visual history to Liss Fenwick’s interrogation of historical and ongoing impacts of extractive colonialist practices in Australia's Northern Territory. Issue 4 offers these and much more to excite and inspire the reader.
