‘The common denominators in these images are fences, segregation, escapism, segmentation, borders. I am fascinated by the urge to segment and divide our environment, locking ourselves up in little Colour Bond ghettos. Australia used to be a series of farms without fences, successfully managed by the traditional owners. Ancient walking paths and sacred locations are now inaccessible and chopped up in a patchwork of subdivisions. I find joy in witnessing and documenting the demise of fences, old palings rotting away, barbed wire falling of fence posts, gates breaking off their hinges.’
