ALWAYS WAS III

story

The sharp forms reflect the language of modern society. Grids, streets and buildings that divide, organise and disrupt the movement of country. On the other hand, the flowing forms refuse those boundaries. They move uninterrupted, representing a culture that exists beyond the structures built upon it.

Some places make that presence obvious. Others seem to conceal it beneath layers of development. Yet culture remains woven through Country regardless of what stands on top of it. It doesn't ask to be seen but it has and will always be there.

This work speaks to the permanence of that connection. A quiet but constant reminder that beneath every street and every skyline lies a story far older than the city itself.
