| Peter is the son of ''Croatian Immigrants'' who travelled as a young couple to Fremantle, [[Australia]] in the early 1960’s from the island of [[Korcula Dialect|Korcula]] (Dalmatia). After building a home, a successful business and a family of three children, his parents decided to return to the island. All of the adult children over time returned to Australia leaving their parent’s homeland. This dislocation and relocation, a common migrant experience, is poignantly represented by a series of beautiful images produced during a recent return visit by Peter to his family’s ancestral home, now deserted and empty of human life. | | Peter is the son of ''Croatian Immigrants'' who travelled as a young couple to Fremantle, [[Australia]] in the early 1960’s from the island of [[Korcula Dialect|Korcula]] (Dalmatia).
