  • Reykjavík

    Reykjavík

    Reykjavík has changed a lot in ten years. The last time I was here, Iceland was still recovering from the Global Financial Crisis. Now, it’s inflation. There’s more buildings now, apartments, offices and stores. And more people. More tourists. The streets of central Reykjavik are flooded with people from across the world, looking to experience…

  • Copenhagen

    Copenhagen

    The flight to Copenhagen, involved stopping at Singapore and Heathrow. Singapore International Airport is hot and quiet at night. There’s nothing to do but sit and wait to be screened by security and let back on the plane. The flight from Singapore is mercifully emptier. A few lucky people are able to stretch out on…

    June

    It’s been a busy month of photoshoots and photowalks and the tenth Other World’s Zine Fair. I started getting up earlier to take photowalks around town before work. A photoshoot with Lydia and Coshlan. A photowalk with my buddy Scot, who you might have seen in my previous post about the Bessa R4M. Some night…

    January, February

    Some Canberra Graffiti, seeing E.L.K and HOUL work again in Canberra was nice, along with some other new work around the traps. Then I was off on a long weekend in Melbourne with a busted leg for tabling at Festival of the Photocopier, Melbourne’s premier zine fair, organised by the Sticky Institute. It was a…

    Over New Years, my friend Sam and I went to Katoomba, and then I spent a couple of days in Sydney, seeing Louise Bourgeois and Kandisky exhibitions, and hunting around for some camera gear. Katoomba has a nice art gallery and with some fairly contemporary stuff. Also I got injured from a bike ride, which…

  • Adelaide Road Trip

    Adelaide Road Trip

    For the two weeks, I’ve been on the road with a friend to Adelaide and back. Included were a trip to Kangaroo Island, Port Lincoln and the Adelaide Hills. It was a good, relaxing trip, but now I have to get back to work.

  • Out of Town

    Out of Town

    So I’ve been out of town. Most of my time was spent reacquainting myself with both Melbourne and Hobart, along with seeing art galleries and a road trip across Tasmania. Melbourne was fun. I spent a lot of time at the National Gallery of Victoria, RMIT’s Art Gallery (the Elision Ensemble show was especially good)…

  • Brisbane Trip

    Brisbane Trip

    So I spent the last week visiting family and a couple of friends in Queensland.  And take some time out to draw and write some things. I was also in Brisbane and took a few photos of the headline exhibition at QAG and GOMA – The Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art.  The show features…

  • Trip Log 7: Return

    Trip Log 7: Return

    It’s been a long flight. My trip ended a couple of days ago. We had returned the car, and the energy that carried along the coast of this country had eventually left us. We had three days left in Reykjavik, but Josh and I were just spending our time counting them out. I spent the…
