About the work
This photo was taken on the Yarra River in Melbourne and was inspired by my recent reading of Michael Pollan's book 'A World Appears' about human consciousness. The book describes how we cannot examine consciousness unbiasedly, but only through our own consciousness. Like turning on a light to see the darkness!
