"A couple of months ago I spotted a clearly long-abandoned warehouse on my way home from work - all of its windows were broken and it was covered inside and out with layers of sprawling graffiti. Open to the elements as it was, I knew it had to have great light and lots of texture. I had to shoot there. When this project came up, I knew my opportunity had come. With my housemate acting as a lookout, I found a couple of small holes which required a little gymnastics to get though, and emerged into a huge daylit space, covered with junk, debris and broken glass. Privacy at last! For two hours I indulged in the pleasure of exploring the space and light, and how they related to my body. I explored all of the ways I could think of holding the camera out, and enjoyed playing with the mirror I had picked up at an op shop just that day. For me, this is a fairly ideal way to spend an afternoon."
