This work is made on country, with permission, over decades of relationship. Daryl Byrne acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the lands and waters across which he works in Australia and in Papua New Guinea and pays his respects to Elders past and present.

This website contains images of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Some images may depict people who have since passed away. All images are published with community knowledge and permission.

Daryl Byrne divides his time between Sydney and the remote wilderness of Papua New Guinea and outback Australia, growing food, protecting ecosystems, building relationships and exchanging knowledge with traditional communities.

Documenting it all through photography and film.

A life spent creating spaces and connections with purpose,
in places worth holding on to.
