Port Botany sits on the northern shore of Botany Bay, immediately east of Sydney Airport, and is Sydney's primary deepwater container port. Container terminal infrastructure was first developed in the early 1970s, with major expansion completed between 2007 and 2012. Since May 2013 the port has been operated under a 99-year lease to NSW Ports. The Lost Collective Port Botany set is a small two-photo collection from the broader port precinct.

I'm often contacted by people who used to frequent the places I photographed. They share stories that enter the collections as additions or corrections. Sometimes they send their own photos from the same viewpoints, taken decades earlier.

One day I stopped at a vast abandoned factory I passed on my way home from work. There was a long section of fence missing. I wandered in, camera in hand, and that moment was the unofficial beginning of Lost Collective.

Leaving a secure job to work as an artist, trying to manage inconsistent income and tempering the self-doubt and self-criticism that came with it has been one of the most difficult things I've done.
