“I have always felt an uncommon affinity with places dark, ancient and unbroken. I find solace in empty landscapes, void of human interference; raw, rugged and elemental. I am not a dark human, nor a loner, I simply find the company of the wild far more affable than that of modern man. To temporarily remove myself form the mediocrity of society and capture the beauty of unhindered evolution I journeyed south, to Van Diemen’s Land.” – Jack Bailey
