The Lighthouse
For many of us, work experience at high school was a nerve racking, rude awakening to the disintegration of joy and magic as we knew it.

The Christmas Tree Bucket, Trent Parke's Family Album
"It was there," Trent Parke says, "while staring into that bright red bucket, vomiting every hour on the hour for 15 hours straight - that I started to think how strange families, suburbia, life, vomit and, in particular, Christmas really was..."
So began Trent's latest series, THE CHRISTMAS TREE BUCKET.
Translocality, Baden Pailthorpe
A little while ago, my friends had their back walls painted by a bunch of local artists. Impressed by it all, I was like "who did that one?" and they said "Baden," like duh, everyone knows that.
Since that time, local Sydney artist Baden Pailthorpe has continued to hone his vision.

You may have spotted Sarah Holmes' photographs whilst snaking your way through the stalls at Paddington Markets.
