Brutalist architecture has always interested me. There lies a certain beauty in the fact that most of the time its conventionally considered ugly. It forces originality, which comes with such a strong sense of vulnerability, to be judged and to be criticised.
Whether you enjoy the aesthetic or not, its uniqueness amongst the norm I think is something to be spoken for.

At the end of last year I found myself following a creative thread which lead me to researching and photographing a whole bunch of brutalist buildings in NSW, ACT and VIC as I spent time away from my home in Tasmania. I wasn’t really sure why I was doing this, I’m still not 100% sure.. but looking back at what has been a really challenging few months, navigating some big changes in my life, I think it was simply a way to feel a sense of purpose and find a connection to new environments and in this case to a style of architecture.
