In the South East of Brisbane there are several boats that have been abandoned in the streets and waterways. Floating homes and vessels that were once loved are now decrepit and barely Keeping Afloat. For the locals they have become eyesores, a threat to the environment and a stain on their vision of suburbia. However, for an artist who is attracted to the unseen and undervalued beauty of the everyday, they have proven very interesting subjects. I’ve given these boats a new life and an opportunity to tell their story before they meet their maker.
