"Faded Flavours"
This series centers on an abandoned fish and chip shop in Woodend, Victoria—a small, once-busy space now sitting still and silent, gathering dust while everything around it moves on.
What drew me to it wasn’t just the nostalgia of the old signage, worn-out equipment, or the untouched lolly displays still visible inside, but the way the building seems to hold echoes of the past.
You can almost imagine the buzz it once had—the smell of chicken salt and chips frying away, the hum of conversation, the glow of the neon lights. And now, I watched as people passed it by without a second glance. What was once so familiar is now barely noticed.
For me, this series reflects the kind of urban story that’s easy to overlook - everyday places that once meant something, now slowly fading into the background. It holds memories that linger, and a quiet hope that it might one day be brought back to life.
