Art and Industry

After having been immersed in my work for quite some time, or otherwise locked indoors by the incessant rain of a Sydney winter (which always seems to start falling when I’m about three blocks away from home) I was happy to celebrate a break in the clouds with a trip to yet another undiscovered corner of Sydney.  With the last day of Sydney’s Biennale as an excuse, we took the ferry out to Cockatoo Island, one of the Sydney harbor’s many tiny islands of history and mystery.  This former site of a prison, school, reformatory and gaol is now a heritage site, park, campground and, on this occasion, home to art installations both impressive and not.  But what the art lacked the environment was able to inspire.

You can see the rest of my journey in the flickr photos.  A little art, a little industry, some welcomed sunshine and some inspiration to photograph.  What better way to spend a Sunday?
