Trent Parke, Sydney Opera House, 28 October 2009.

The Opera House hounded Trent Parke to photograph the building for some years before he finally agreed. Before this project Parke had never set foot inside the Opera House.

The photographs were all taken inside the Opera House.

Beautifully printed on some kind of weather proof material.

Apparently the Opera House stage crew didn't fancy having a photographer document their activities and so it became an extremely challenging project.

Then to Stills Gallery to see Trent Parke's second show.

This was also part of the Opera House series but entirely without people.

I loved how this show was hung.

A set of postcards was made from Parke's Opera House photographs.

Everywhere.

Hommies.

Trent Parke, fair dinkum.
