About

Builtworks is an ongoing photographic study of contemporary Australia through its built environment.

The project looks at how places are organised, occupied, maintained, adapted and lived with — from public infrastructure and institutional spaces to suburban edges, service areas, temporary shelters, industrial zones and ordinary rooms.

Rather than treating buildings as finished architectural objects, Builtworks is concerned with what happens around them and within them: use, waiting, maintenance, absence, improvisation, wear, and the traces of human presence.

The work is published through two ongoing series: Field Notes and Picturing Place.
