I look back at childhood and I find I was always drawn to this imagery. Drawn to empty spaces/buildings etc. Odd little tableaux that just pop in the subconscious somehow. I was born in an old dying mining town so that was an influence I think. The buildings/substructures etc. began a mere few hundred feet from the company houses we lived in. That whole area was my playground basically. Awesome!

Also my dad was a school principal and as very small children my sister and I were allowed to wander the buildings emptiness on weekends while paw did his office work. No shortage of liminal images in there for sure and no doubt all had an influence on my dreams as well. Very interesting stuff and will read up more for sure.
