SURVEY THIRTEEN
Balcony of Daydreams was a major studio work as part of my Degree based on an Adelaide mansion: Carrick Hill at Springfield. The interior space has rich layers of history as it houses an interior balcony and stairways that dates back to fourteenth century England. Again my work is a journey with interior space. The balcony and its shadow allow the viewer to move in a vertigous manner along its great expanse, visiting the various rooms which trails the length of the work.

My reading has been about the imagination when we were children. Exploring places and spaces, a world of wonder and experiences both sad and happy. The memories are many and Carrick Hill near Adelaide reminds me of those memories. This work is about the comfort and protection of a house when storms are raging outside.

My reading has been about the imagination when we were children. Exploring places and spaces, a world of wonder and experiences both sad and happy. The memories are many and Carrick Hill near Adelaide reminds me of those memories. The lived experience within the space allows the viewer to rise up high and enjoy the free fall down the stairs.

Diary note: I had a look at the design / buildings of the architect Richard Rogers. He designed an unusual inside out exo skeletal building known as the Pompadou Centre in Paris. More recently he designed the Lloyds Building in London, his architectural design is for the user to have more space inside... not taken up with lifts and stairs in the central parts of the building but they form part of the outside walls instead. The outcome is that the building appear machine like. Framed
