EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Dan Himbrechts, we are presented with a poignant visual representation of the impact that the ongoing coronavirus pandemic has had on the arts industry. The image showcases the iconic Carriageworks arts precinct in Sydney, bathed in soft sunlight against a clear blue sky. The Carriageworks, nestled within the historic Eveleigh rail yards, stands as a symbol of creativity and cultural expression. However, it now finds itself at an unprecedented crossroads as it becomes Sydney's first major arts company to seek voluntary administration due to the devastating effects of COVID-19. This photograph serves as a stark reminder of how even established institutions can be vulnerable during times of crisis. The empty streets surrounding Carriageworks reflect not only its current state but also echo the broader struggles faced by artists and creative professionals worldwide. Yet amidst these challenges lies hope for renewal and resilience. Despite its uncertain future, Carriageworks remains an emblematic testament to Australia's rich artistic heritage and will undoubtedly continue to inspire generations to come. Dan Himbrechts' masterful composition captures both the architectural grandeur and emotional weight carried by this significant landmark. It prompts us to reflect upon our collective responsibility towards supporting and preserving our cultural institutions during these trying times. As we gaze upon this evocative image, let us remember that art is not just a luxury but an essential part of our humanity – one that must be safeguarded for generations yet unborn.
