04 FROM THE FIELD NOTES

A single corrugated iron hut sits low in open grassland. The walls are galvanised steel, weathered to a dull grey. A timber door hangs slightly ajar. Rust stains bleed from the roofline where fixings have corroded. Behind the structure, a wooden power pole carries two lines across flat scrubland that stretches unbroken to the horizon. The sky holds a wash of amber and pale cloud. A pile of loose bricks leans against one corner.

The series

A Place to Call Home

2015–2020 · 59 photographs

A series of rural homesteads from the Snowy Monaro region of southern New South Wales, with a few from the Hunter Valley. Most were family homes left behind when a generation moved to town; others when the land could no longer be worked. The buildings are smaller than the industrial sites that anchor most of Lost Collective and tend to be older. Most are timber-framed.
