BURNOUT – Photographs  Beauty can rise from ashes, just as hearts can regenerate after burnout.
Review

In the long summer sunsets the burnt car was iridescent.
Exotic colours and textures had emerged as paint and metal were charred and oxidised by incineration.
The images evoke points of transition (sunrises, shorelines), strange worlds (industrial dystopias, gleaming estuaries)
and beauty emerging from ashes, just as harsh fires of change can bring new, tempered perspectives in our lives.

This photo was taken by a neighbour to let police know about the stolen car dumped at McKellar oval in early January. The 1988 Nissan Skyline was in good condition and had clearly been cared for by its owner over the years. The next morning it had been completely incinerated. The below slideshow tells the story of the car over the 6 or so weeks it was at the oval where it prompted conversation among locals walking dogs and playing with children, until it was finally sprayed with a serial number and towed away.
