During a time of uncertainty, the backyard is a sanctuary, providing a literal and figurative grounding. Views from this extension of home reveal the surrounding neighbourhood in the distance and the suggestion of other backyard adventure clubs.

A sense of space and adventure is constructed over time from ideas and available materials in a similar way to the process of artmaking.

Nicole Slatter and Bruce Slatter are Western Australian artists, with long-standing careers in the industry. They both grew up in the Northern suburbs of Perth; Bruce in Mullaloo and Nicole in Sorrento. The suburban experience is a continual source of inspiration in their collaborative practice.
