Reg Dodd is an artist, political activist, historian, Arabunna elder and custodian for the Marree and Lake Eyre region of South Australia. Displaying his art allows Dodd to give people the chance to understand how Aboriginal people feel about the land. Dodd uses his camera to make works of art that record his country. He says, “Tourists come through this place and say that there’s nothing to see out there. They say it’s a big country with nothing in it. But I can go out and photograph any number of things just in a tiny area. I take photographs of things in their natural habitat. Nearly all my photos are of this area because I can identify with the places and the images: they’re part of me.” Reg Dodd was born in 1940 at Finniss Springs Mission Station which is situated on the Southern Shore of Lake Eyre. As a young teenager he worked as a stockman and later on the railways. He then worked as a photographer for the Department of Environment and Planning and Aboriginal Heritage and then started Arabunna Tours which are still operating.
