Maurice Blackburn Lawyers Social Justice: Exhibit A-i

Top 6: April 26th 2023
The most powerful evidence in history is visual. The right image not only exposes injustice but pressures policy-makers to put a stop to it. For over 10 years, refugees have been illegally and inhumanely detained by the Australian Government in offshore detention centres. There is no visual evidence. Camera equipment, journalists and reporters are banned. Only by making this injustice visible, can we provoke change. This is the purpose of Exhibit A-i.

Social justice law firm, Maurice Blackburn, conducted 300 hours of interviews with refugees, documenting the atrocities they faced in offshore detention. Together with AI technicians, survivors then generated the first visual evidence of their experiences. Every detail was made as accurate as possible, from the colour of the tents to the subjects’ facial expressions. While photojournalists were consulted to guide composition and image quality.

The evidence was sent to journalists and members of parliament. It was launched to the public through an exhibition, before being shared in OOH, online and social. The images have also been integrated into stock libraries to sit alongside real photojournalism.
