I recently undertook an interview with the the ABC on the Tasmanian Modernism and Art Deco project and how the project is now nearing 20 years. I’ve been reflecting on my travels documenting our built environment in Tasmania. I was reflecting on how much travelling and being inspired by what I found around me, not just in Tasmania, but on mainland Australia and overseas. I remember early on in my photography when documenting the now demolished 10 Murray Street Government offices I became good friends with the Architect, Dirk Bolt. I remember sharing my photographs with him of his design and his words of encouragement really inspired me to carry on documenting not only 10 Murray Street but the built environment at large. I remember documenting his other buildings in Tasmania as well as going on a roundtrip throughout Australia documenting as I went from Melbourne up to Far North Queensland as well as a list of buildings Dirk Bolt designed in Canberra from residential, university and commercial buildings. I still love travelling and documenting the built environment, the buildings may be physically removed from Tasmania but the connections in terms of design styles, architects and history all come together to inform my photography.
