With a compass in hand and within my 5km lockdown radius in Melbourne, I search for natural refuge. I explore locations where human-made and nature meet on the periphery and connect through the mirror. The awareness of our fundamental human need for natural surroundings increased amidst the pandemic and dispiriting lockdown. We step out of our homes to seek the green areas in our urban setting to exercise, connect and take deep breaths.

The mirror is a tool; it gives me directions and points me to the repose of green spaces. 2021.
