In my search for Sydney letterboxes ,) I come across moments and opportunities. So, I am beginning a collection of some of these inner City Sydney moments: ‘Blink and You’ll Miss It’ - This image was recently used by DannyNolan in his journal entry EPIC / It’s a great read so check it out. / - Although this might look like a feral inner city cat, he was simply yawning after dozing on a possibly warm motorcycle engine on the first sunny and dry day in Sydney in what seemed like weeks. The other shots I took are friendly and sleepy…but this was a killer. Thanks to MBartworks for the cool title.

I lived in Australia for a year as do all backpacking Irish guys and for 7months of that year I lived here in Cardigan street, No.78. I lived with Matt, Michelle and Michelle and of course mad bad Jason also Adrian, English Gav and some other bloke whose name escapes me, Dando the dog god rest his soul, the sisters of Michelle L., Lily and Eda who visited with food from somewhere after they had a day working in Glebe market or not. The band I remember that the household liked, amongst numerous others was You Am I and we saw them in the Annandale as well as Skunk Anansie. I went home via Los Angeles and New York and 6 months later another Philip from Dublin had moved in. He turned out to be my classmate from a DTP course we did together in Dublin City. He told me himself in Hogans Bar Dublin in 1998. F…ing small world man! / This is Michelle on the classic smashed up house share sofa, which was not brown.

King Street, Newtown. A diverse mix of crazy people, students, drunks, yuppies and working stiffs like yours truly.

Newtown the Brave is a Teeshirt for all people who love living in the inner city. The goths and the schoolies and the grannies and the punks and the professionals who all live in the wonderful suburb of Newtown in Sydney. Oi Newtown rules OK. If anyone wants one of these tees with the name of their own town on it then just email me and it shall be done. :0

This shot grew out of boredom but evolved into something I really like and feel strongly about – despite the multiple interpretations of bubblers – which I also love. The idea was to present a comment on the shift for those being oppressed to then becoming manipulated into mainstream and becoming the oppressors – from marginal to mainstream, from radical to conservative. The recent history of the gay and lesbian liberation movement has resulted in creating new generation ‘queers’ – turning past activists into consumers, which can hold high moral grounds, or previously less visible middle class conservative values. This shot depicts the pretentious scandal and affectations, when ‘scandal’ or shock value was often the modus operandi of the gay and lesbian liberation movement in the past.

This shot was taken through a frosted glass window from a street in Stanmore, Sydney. The light was just right on the best sunny winter day so far this year. I decided to leave the spots of dirt, paint and splotches – makes for a more rustic look too, which I like.

It’s been weeks and weeks since I put up any new work… been busy with one thing and another… though that may seem like a poor excuse for not feeding the bubble with new stuff…. anyhow….I thought I’d go back to a medium that I truly love… Infrared film… Kodak of course…. not that they make the damned stuff any more which is heartbreaking to true lover of the medium like myself… I only have three rolls left in the whole world… don’t know what I’m going to do for kicks when I use them…. sigh…. anyway…. a new series of works …. the / Silo’s in Newtown. This is a very old building and once was a real silo… now it’s been converted to very very expensive chi chi apartments… / . / and I do mean expensive…. but the thing is that the form of the building remains true…. how do you fight such strong lines? They dominate the line of the suburb like nothing else and over the years I’ve wasted my fair share of film on them…. this image and the ones that follow are as small part of that repotire and I do really really hope you enjoy them…. the Silo Series…..

Life can be pretty black and white sometimes…... This was shot many years ago in the grimy inner city suburb of Newtown while waiting for a train at St Peters Station…... the inner city can be a fairly fraught place to be in sometimes so CityRail kindly placed a lovely billboard of a rainforest ajacent to the platform to sooth the harried traveller…... it advertises nothing but a little bit of wishful thinking and dream beliving…..... and I’m all for that….....:)

this is my very first post for the year so I thought I’d put something a little more considered up…. sometimes in moments of lucid dreaming I think that I can’t remember my real name… not the name my parents gave me but a deeper name…. sometimes I have a sense of that deeper self within but it’s elusive and emphemeral …. but I think about it sometimes…... if I could remember my real name I’d have a better idea of what I’m supposed to be doing in the world…... if I could remember my name this is most likely what I be like…or that’s what I would like to think anyway …... so although this is not actually me…. it is also me…. just nameless. maybe this is from a dream… I can never be sure with some work…. this is one of those works….. anyway …. this started out in life as black and white 35mm negative that has been processed and scanned then digitally handcoloured

As I was taking this photo a pigeon flew into shot in the refelction in the puddle. I couldn’t have asked for better. This picture was cleaned up using GIMP and the border added using PhotoFiltre. The shot was on macro setting but long focus. Featured in In Another World (24 May 09). Sundrop
