Episode Details

Chris Hopkins is a freelance photojournalist based in Melbourne, Australia.

Chris’ work is an examination of the effects of systemic and embedded societal inhumanity that is not often covered in mainstream media. His intention – to bring these human rights issues to the forefront of public awareness – is to ‘use photography to show intimate commonalities despite our differences, to create empathy and inspire a different, more benevolent way of thinking’. Chris’ body of work includes reportage, portraiture, multimedia (documentary style video), commercial and works on commission.

Chris is a highly awarded photojournalist. He is a three-time Walkley winner (Australia’s highest honour for Journalism), two-time National Photographic Portrait Prize Finalist and in 2025 was the winner of Pictures of the Year International (POYi) in the World Understanding Award category.
His photographs are included in collections at The Australian War Memorial, State Library of Victoria and the Victorian State Archives.
