Tree in the City

Why is it that some of the most simple things become the hardest to achieve? Maybe in the hustle and bustle of daily life we disconnect from certain elements.

Industrial Giraffes

On the ferry trip to moreton island, you may see these large giraffes living in the Port of Brisbane. Some creative people believe they are cargo ship cranes... late at night, in the early hours of the morning, you can sometimes see them walking around the headland...

Inside / Outside

this is a contribution from the Cloud Dwellers....it really intrigues me. at one spectrum I ponder how it's possible to remove the innards, the soul, from a building of such Cultural Heritage Significance - at another spectrum I am simply drawn inside this as a photographic study, suspended in 2D vertigo...


"This is an inside - outside montage of the remnant facade of George Symon's Suits and St Francis House in Elizabeth St."

2011


A new year has begun (well it's March now).

Brisbab has taken a little break, refreshed and geared up for a new year of observing, connecting, commenting and discussing ideas.

As a New Zealander, a friend (and lover) of Japan and a citizen of Brisbane, reflecting on recent events, ocurring in these places, has in my view brought about a broader way of thinking, about both people and the environments (built and natural) we live in.

For anyone that may read or follow us and has been affected in anyway, our sincerest thoughts and wishes of strength (Kia Kaha!) go out to you, your friends and your families.

From our observations there is a huge amount of renewed community spirit, locally and internationally. On this note, we hope to capture the essence of a renewed year ahead!
