Withers Dream

Sale Price: $1,300.00 Original Price: $2,340.00

From Passport store and gallery show MTNS 2 SYD in February 2025.

When I lived in Leichhardt for two years across the road there was this old decrepit house that was about to topple down but everyday there’d be a feeble old man who would climb up and down a ladder out the front with a hardhat and rope tied round his waist.

I got to know the bloke and his name was Chris Withers. Every time i saw him Id say “Chris hows the work going” and he would always say “Slow”

In the two years i was there it looked exactly the same or if not worse even though Withers would be working on it everyday.

I wanted to make a piece of what he dreamed his shackled up terrace house to look like.
