EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Greg Sullavan transports us to the eerie and desolate streets of Cracow, a once-thriving regional town in central Queensland that now stands abandoned. The image focuses on an old shop front, its weathered facade telling tales of a forgotten era. Peeling paint and cracked windows bear witness to the passage of time, while remnants of signage hint at what this establishment might have offered in its heyday. What truly sets this photograph apart is the unexpected presence of a couch positioned right outside the dilapidated store. A striking contrast emerges between the decaying surroundings and this seemingly out-of-place piece of furniture. Its worn upholstery suggests years spent exposed to harsh elements, yet it remains defiantly present amidst abandonment. The juxtaposition prompts reflection on what may have transpired within these walls long ago – bustling conversations over cups of coffee or laughter shared among friends. Now left to decay, this ghostly shop front serves as a poignant reminder of lives lived and dreams lost. Sullavan's keen eye for detail captures not only the physical deterioration but also evokes an emotional response from viewers who are transported into Cracow's haunting past. This print invites contemplation about impermanence and reminds us that even in desolation, fragments of beauty can still be found lingering amid forgotten places like whispers from another time.
