Sunlight illuminates the corrugated fibro walls of this forgotten shed. Faded paint peels from its surfaces, revealing layers of time and the harsh elements of the Australian landscape.

04 FROM THE FIELD NOTES

A fibro and weatherboard shed sits low against a rising hillside. Corrugated iron roof, pale grey, patched with rust at the ridge. The front wall is open or missing its door. Timber fence posts and wire runs mark out old yards around the structure. A single weeping willow stands nearby, full and green. Cattle graze the slope behind, scattered across bare and grassed ground. The light is flat, overcast. Everything is quiet and still.

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.
