'Penfolds' (detail). Laser-etched found materials. 30 x 15 cm. Masonite, paint. 2010.
Laser-etched masonsite from Penfolds Brewery, Minchinbury New South Wales. Masonite fragments littered the site, in heritage and industrial colours. Also, repairs and graffiti cover-ups were done in a similar colour palette, in an often futile attempt to attempt to restore/locate the site as a space of 'heritage', rather than vandalism and illict suburban play.

Polaroids from the site, which were exhibited alongside found laser etched materials. Instant photos were used to document the walking routes, the rich sensory experience and the uncanny architectural spaces and contradictions of the Penfolds Brewery Site.
