MONKEY BUSINESS

“Alina does something I don’t often see-she reaches deep into the mystery of where her talent comes from. And her images are the dreams that come from that place. She’s a conductor of chaos and beauty - and finds the freedom within the human she’s photographing. If there was something as a wish in life , I’d wish she gets to capture more moments that last a lifetime on peoples’ walls for all of us. She made my MONKEY BUSINESS dreams come true".

Luke Doolan is shown here in his natural creative habitat. Doolan likes the Infinite Monkey Theorem, which suggests that monkeys randomly banging on typewriters for an infinite amount of time would eventually produce the works of Shakespeare or Hollywood (as also famously tested by Mr Burns in 'The Simpsons'). In this photograph, the same idea is applied for the Australian film industry-which meant only one monkey was afforded and at mates' rates!
