Artist’s Statement: There's a tenuous relationship between life and death. 2nd December 1998 two CFA tankers became trapped by fire. One successfully took survival action. The other lost, engulfed and destroyed. Honoring my brother, Five volunteer firefighters that died in the Linton bushfire in Victoria 22 years ago, lives were changed forever.
