Born in 1976 in Australia. Lives and works in Sydney. Combining history and anthropology, Kurt Sorensen's photographic practice echoes a colonial history, invoking the antagonistic encounter between early European settlers and the Australian landscape. Sorensen connects with his subject matter through in-camera and darkroom processes that allude to the precarious and uneasy relationship of colonial Europeans with the antipodean environment.

Sorensen's photographs have been included in several nationally recognised prizes and has been shown extensively both nationally and internationally. His work is held in several public and private collections in Australia and overseas.
