For many years, John Eden has explored the Perth Hills on his bike. Wherever John goes, he finds evidence of the movements and activities of others who have gone before him. These ‘landmarks’, punctuating the landscape, fascinate him with their unknowable, but partly guessable, histories. The places he brings you to through his work include Mahogany Creek’s car graveyard, Sir Paul Hasluck’s abandoned swimming pool, and the former Barton’s Mill Prison.
