‘Starters Blocks #0011 was made on film at Newcastle Ocean Baths. I watched for the occasions when council staff had freshly whitewashed the old starting blocks. The renewed brightness exaggerated their weathered concrete surfaces and made their repeated forms feel almost sentinel-like—small architectural figures standing watch over the pool and the ocean beyond.’
