Thanks to everybody who came along to see my exhibition âShiftâ while it was showing at Fort Delta gallery - it was a great success. These are a few photos from the opening night, taken by Kristoffer Paulsen.

I canât tell you how much I love this. All of her work, really. This gets rill good at 1:30.
Water flows eastwards along the Coxâs river. This water responds to its environment, rising and lapsing in moments of drought and rainfall, all the while attempting to sustain the ecosystem around it. The Coxâs river run begins in Ben Bullen, flowing across the central tablelands through Megalong Valley, eastwards towards the Hawkesbury/Nepean catchment eventually becoming impounded by Warragamba Dam in Lake Burragorang â Sydneyâs water supply. The water itself inhabits many places and from each place it carries a trace of sediment, as it navigates the natural and man-made environments and altered landscapes, such as Lake Lyell and Lake Wallace, that are constructed to fulfil purposes set by farmers, mining companies, power stations and recreational and civic demands.
Over the time-span of 20 years I have been humbled by this rivers existence. Since 1994 my parents have lived on an acreage in Megalong Valley where the Coxâs river underscores the lower section of their bottom paddock. Here the river is traversed by two crossings, one a relatively new concrete causeway built for private use and the other an older steel bridge that provides access for the water board to the river through our property. Interestingly, there is also an above-ground steel pipeline crossing the river beside the steel bridge. This is the Oberon to Medlow bath pipeline, constructed to send drinking water from the Fish river up to Greaves catchment in Medlow Bath.
The pipe, bridge and river junction beneath my parentâs property interest me. I often consider the fact that the water courses naturally in the Coxâs river while the Fish riverâs waters are piped artificially over the top of the river through the steel pipeline. Although the pipeline contributes to the upper Blue Mountains water supply, it is only pumped as replenishment for the larger reservoir, so it operates more as a back up. During the dry, hot summer months that are typical of this region the Coxâs flow is usually very low, often muddy and stagnant with rampant algal blooms. At this time, the pipeline may be ebbing with fresh cool water from the Fish River. This is an ironic factor of the presence of these two different passageways of water.
Mankindâs need for electricity and water comes at a detriment to rivers like the Coxâs, where a future equilibrium for both man and nature seems an almost cryptic proposition, especially considering that the river is bookended by man-made dams. All needs considered, the cycle of nature continues. The ancient river prevails, albeit in a diminished form, abated by the infrastructures of modern society.Â
