Garage door

Over the past year, like much of south-eastern Australia, the place where I live has been affected by
drought, fire, severe hailstorms and the global COVID-19 pandemic. Responding to these events has made
me think about how boundaries fragment and create distinctions: inside/outside, public/private,
human/animal/machine, mine/yours/ours/theirs. The boundaries are containers for ideas; they help me
prioritise decisions, energy and information. They also help me forget, ignore, become blind. If I become
more aware of the boundaries, redraw them, then my perception and thinking can change too.
This couple are of sounds of transitional or liminal places between inside and outside. The first is of a
garage door and the second is of a screen door, both common in suburban Australian houses. The images
are of the view looking through the garage doors into the garden beyond, and the view looking out of the
screen door.
