Where is Jon?

4th March 2015

What look and feels normal and mundane today, may not be the same feeling or the same mundane day in the near future.

The outlook of how the police task force, to a street fashionista of today or a simple lost traveller, this photo project documents how today as it is.

 

Unknowingly, 4th of March was also the day Melbourne march in protest to express general displeasure with measures introduced by the Federal Government, in particular those involving workers’ rights, tertiary education, healthcare, and public and community services. This photo project came across the protest and documented at the intersection from Swanston and Bourke.

 

4th of March 2015 was the day I walked up and down Bourke Street from 6am through 6pm. These are the photographs which documents the day.
