Harbourside Snapshots is inspired by a moment I experienced at the beginning of 2020 right before the world was plunged into the uncertainty of the pandemic and lockdowns. I was waiting for a train at Sydney's Circular Quay station in the morning rush and was overwhelmed by the sights and sounds of the city. I could feel the thrum of the approaching train beneath my feet, hear the horns of the ferries and traffic on the nearby road, see the glisten of the sunlight on the water below, and was squashed amongst a writhing mass of commuters getting ready to board the next train. Throughout the lockdowns of 2020 and 2021, I found myself returning to this last moment of ‘normality’ again and again and wondering when I would next be able to experience it.
