About this print
A long corridor runs between a brick interior wall and a row of louvred windows. Metal-framed desks line the left side, their laminate surfaces peeling away from the chipboard. The concrete floor is streaked with grime and dried silt. A red fire service pipe tracks across the low ceiling. Graffiti marks the windows on the right. Flat, diffused light presses through the glass. The air looks thick with damp.
Brett Patman
The series
Waterfall Sanatorium
The first patients arrived at the Hospital for Consumptives, Waterfall on 14 April 1909, with initial provision for 180 men. A women's wing opened in May 1912 for 120; by 1919 it had become the largest sanatorium in New South Wales, holding 788 patients. The site sat at about 1,000 feet (305 m), 26 miles (42 km) south of Sydney, on the medical theory that tuberculosis needed 'high and rarefied atmosphere in the country away from the grime and pollution of cities'.
