There are many titles that Wendy Chant falls under. Shearing contractor, mum, woolclasser — from 16 years old — and counsellor. But when you meet this rural woman it’s not about the labels. She has a vibe about her that draws you in. It’s warm and inviting and you instantly feel like part of her family. Ms Chant grew up over the ditch on a third generation farm in a little country village called Colyton on the north island of New Zealand.
What does the Australian wool industry look like? "Dust and everyday sheep", thinks former master wool classer turned photographer Chantel McAlister, and she has the photos to prove it. Since 2015, McAlister has photographed modern, on-farm wool production processes across Queensland, New South Wales, Tasmania and Western Australia. McAlister's mission is to "tell the truth about wool" through her documentary photos.
