‘The Boardwalk #1658 treats the wooden surface of Newcastle Ocean Baths not simply as access through the pool, but as a surface carrying accumulated experience. Countless wet feet have crossed these timbers on their way to swimming, play and everyday rituals beside the ocean. The wear embedded in the boards becomes a quiet record of those journeys—history held not in monuments, but in material repeatedly touched and used.’
