(One of the famous church in Coogee)
From the above black and white photos, the city and human was devastated caused by the war. And my idead was to create a reality church in the war and make people feel the importance of peace, that was why I chose the building surround us and the type of building, church.
Church should be the most beautiful and sacred place, if even this kind of building was destroyed and abandoned. That mean human destroyed their own beliefs. Human without faith was hopeless. And that was the war gave us 'Despair'.
