This underwater shot was taken earlier this year whilst Jean-Francois was working on producing a photographic immersive for our current exhibition on modernism in Australia. This was taken at Enfield pool in Sydney which was originally designed by the architects Rudder and Grout in 1933. They were also responsible for designing the North Sydney pool complex and this features in our immersive also. The immersive is located at the end of the exhibition and you can sit in one of the booth seats from the original Bates milk bar in Bondi and watch the 7 minute audio visual. We would love to hear from you if you seen our immersive.
