waterline

Waterline 2013 -2021

This is an ongoing project to track and make images of shipwright D.L.Milne who was my great great grandfather. He built paddle steamers on the Murray. This is a cross section of the many works I’ve made about David Milne and the lives of his boats, one of which was burnt to the waterline in 1894 in historic circumstances.
