Goldfields church 1979

An almost abandoned country church of brick and stone.

Its simple prismatic form a slow evolution from the Romanesque and Gothic buildings of Europe, now standing silent in the intense light and deep shadow of an Australian summer.

This structure is a testament to the past wealth and dedication of the community from which it arose.

The flat planes and sharply incised openings of its walls were crafted decades before the earliest modernist buildings in Europe.

The ingredients of architecture do not change over time.
