Time lapse images of planes landing at Tullamarine, taken with Cameron Robbins. The images reveal the lines of landings lights traced across the night sky. This is a kind of extrusion of light mapping the aircrafts pathway.
A few images from my exhibition opening in Melbourne on the 16th February. I have been in Melbourne doing a summer residency with RMIT.

In November 2011, Jon’s two works were installed at the corner of Rudd and Moore Streets Canberra. Comissioned by the Canberra council early in 2010, these two 8 metre folded steel pieces were fabricated in Perth, then transported to Canberra for installation. They sit on opposite corners of the intersection and symbolise the Autumn colours and leaves.
Installation has commenced on the entry piece for the new childrens playground in Kings Park.

A series of sculptures placed within a park in the North Western Australian town of Port Hedland. This project has been many months in the making and is now nearing completion.
This is a collaborative project between Architect Riet Eeckhout and myself, please click to view Riet’s post.
Airports are places of transition that enable rapid movement between locations across the globe. Each runway is a site where airspace is ordered, the ground space is equally controlled. Viewed from above the runways and terminals display a variation determined by function. Yet this functionality creates an expressive dimension that view runways as markers of places as well as relics of civilisations. In this project runways have been mapped and translated in a variety of methods that suggest a linguistic imprint on the earths surface.
These works are a continuation of a project from which these ideas of poetics prosaics and politics overlap. Runways are shown in random relation to one another in this book and suggest one may travel anywhere. Random relations between Jordan airport and Beirut Lebanon and Shark Bay Australia and Mumbia and so on. These unstructured interconnections may one day realise a promise of coexistence.
