Further Information:
Boy on a Bike was shot in Coober Pedy, a town in northern South Australia, 846 km (526 mi) north of Adelaide on the Stuart Highway. According to the 2011 census, its population was 1,695 (953 males, 742 females, including 275 indigenous Australians).
The town is sometimes referred to as the "opal capital of the world" because of the quantity of precious opals that are mined there.

The name "Coober Pedy" comes from the local Aboriginal term kupa-piti, which means "boys’ waterhole." Source: Wikipedia
The work was a finalist in the Australian Life photography prize for Art and About Sydney in 2016.
