In 2004 Melynda von Wayward
picked up a camera for the first time and decided to reinvent herself as a
photographer in order to capture and document the contemporary Melbourne punk
scene.
What she ended up creating was a project titled Punk a Photographic
Journey: 2004 - 2007 - an 80-page photographic book that captures and
celebrates the colour, style and attitude of the contemporary Melbourne (Australia)
punk scene.
Take a look inside and see
gravity defying hairdos, handcrafted studded jackets, vibrant clothing and the
anti-social attitude that goes hand in hand with being a punk. All of the
images were taken by Melynda von Wayward at events like the infamous ‘Melbourne
Punk Pub Crawl’ and other punk gigs around Melbourne between the years 2004 -
2007.
