these fences and garage doors are from mount hawthorn, leederville and north perth. i won't give precise locations, well, because they're all laneways which should be discovered on your own, like i did. but some of them don't have street names at all. these back lane paths are ideal models for streets - wide enough for seldom use by one car; short cuts; walkways for lots of people, bikes, tricycles; it's where your family comes together after school to kick the ball around. but really the best part is that they aren't maintained like the front fence is. they are left to melt away, back into nature. paint peels cos its shit, and eventually there is a reveal of true nature and raw material--steel, wood, stone, brick, concrete block, tin. it rusts with the rain and no one minds. |
