A single window throws pale light across a bare concrete floor. The room is large and empty. Mould blooms dark across the walls and ceiling. Plaster has lifted in patches, exposing damp render beneath. Several doorways open to corridors and stairwells beyond. An arched alcove sits to the right, its purpose unclear. Severed electrical cables hang from the ceiling. The air looks cold and still.

The series
Callan Park
Dr Frederic Norton Manning rejected the asylum as 'a cemetery for deceased intellects'. In 1876 he toured asylums in England, France, Germany and the United States, returning with drawings of Chartham Down Hospital in Kent. Working with Colonial Architect James Barnet and Botanic Gardens director Charles Moore, he built Australia's first hospital purpose-built for moral therapy treatment on the Iron Cove foreshore.
