04 FROM THE FIELD NOTES

A corrugated iron woolshed sits low against open grazing country. Rust streaks the galvanised walls in long vertical runs. The roofline sags slightly off-centre. Dried grass and dead thistles press up against the base. A single crow perches on the far corner of the roof, still and dark against the pale steel. Behind the shed, green pasture rolls uphill into haze. Scattered trees dot the distant slope. The light is flat and cool, overcast, mid-morning.

The series

The Woolshed

2016 · 28 photographs

The Woolshed is a series of working and former working woolsheds across south-eastern New South Wales, predominantly the south-east hinterland and Snowy Monaro region. Most are timber-framed and clad in corrugated iron or timber weatherboards, weathered through decades of use. Some still shear; many do not, as farming priorities have shifted and shearing technology has changed. Woolsheds were sometimes important community meeting points, used for dances and other gatherings. The buildings were always built for function - appearance was never a factor in their design.
