Picalo Cabin / Gerard Dombroski Workshop

Last year I built a five-meter long steel spoon and traveled the length of the country photographing it in skate bowls (an exercise in viewing skate bowls and pools as domestic ware). While on this trip I went to Driving Creek Railway and Pottery for a working bee during which we rebuilt a couple of wood-fired kilns. After the working bee, DCR invited me to come back for a month-long residency to build ‘something’. The rules were that it had to be made from what I could find around DCR and due to COVID they had no money to spend.
