Exhibit 11: A Site For Weathering 1997, Platform Artists Group, Spencer Street Railway Station, Melbourne
A Site for Weathering references the iconic white weatherboard home found throughout the suburbs of greater Melbourne. Secured with architectural deftness to a central column in the underground of Spencer Street Railway Station the installation marked Platform Artist Group's 100th exhibition.
As the title suggests, knowledge is acquired over time, with the thin line between the paint and weatherboard offering itself as a metaphor for the fitness of human consciousness. A dedication to LeAmon's grandparents the construction is numbered 775 with a doorbell to one side.
