Judy Hudson

Judy Hudson is a photographic artist based in Bacchus Marsh, Victoria, Australia. After a successful career in education, she pursued her passion for photography by studying at the Photography Studies College in Melbourne. Since then, Judy has developed a strong artistic practice, exhibiting her evocative works both locally and internationally.

She was also honoured to showcase her work at the prestigious Venice Photo Biennale in Italy in 2022.


Artistic Style

Judy works across both digital and analogue mediums, creating black-and-white prints, toned photogravures, salt prints, and Polaroids. Her portfolio reveals a keen eye for detail and a profound sense of timelessness. Through her lens, Judy explores themes of melancholy and introspection, producing images infused with nostalgia and romanticism. Critics often praise her work for its poetic quality and emotional depth.


Themes and Techniques

Fascinated by the interplay of natural light and shadow, Judy embraces low-key imagery to capture darkness and mystery. She often draws inspiration from historic and abandoned settings, constructing haunting narratives using her personal collection of antique props and costumes. Her photographs carry a delicate emotional charge, inviting viewers to connect with the stories embedded within each frame.


Notable Projects

Over recent years, Judy has had the privilege of photographing inside the historic Flack Post and Telegraph Office in Ballan (built in 1864), an experience that has enriched her work with layers of history and atmosphere. Her international recognition continues to grow, highlighted by her participation in the Venice Photo Biennale and exhibitions at respected galleries in Australia.
