• Urban decay #001

  Date: 2009.04.25 | Category: street art & urban decay, Sydney | Response: 2

  

  What? A rotting fence; a man hole cover (ever used? unlikely…); pidgeon poo at the entrance to a park.

  

  Why? Because I look at these things; my eyes are drawn to them … since I was a child. Because I find them beautiful in their entropy, their brokeness, and the accidental patterns they make. Because if I don’t photograph them now, someone will tear them down, clean them up, take them away…

  And becuase they give me a sense of place, this is my Sydney … it takes time for your eyes to pick out these details, you don’t see them as a visitor, in a hurry: so if you’re not from here, I thought you might enjoy …

  

  Where? Back streets of Ultimo, NSW; along City Road, between Newtown and Broadway, N.S.W.

  When? I’m thinking an ongoing series … stay tuned
