MEN WITH HEART –  Photographer: Paul Hoelen, Videographer: Troy Melville.

This powerfully moving multi-media exhibition has won multiple awards for its impact on the health and well-being of both men and boys in Australia. 

Shot in complete confidentiality over two decades, this documentary exhibition presents a deeply unique body of work in both its intimacy and scope intended to both challenge and explore what defines healthy masculinity in Australian culture today. 

In a time when much of the world’s media is choosing to focus on the darker side of what men are capable of, this project provides a refreshing, welcome and important counterbalance by portraying the open-heartedness, courage, and vulnerability of men coming together to face their issues and work on becoming better men. Better fathers, brothers, partners and sons. 

A commanding curation of printed imagery is accompanied by written stories and poems from the men within them and in-depth video interviews from attendees of the Tasmanian Mens Gathering. The Tasmen Community invites viewers to engage and share their reactions in writing to become part of the current exhibition and future book project.
