Back in 2011 I had a friend who was living in a squat in Northcote, it was an awesome warehouse. This place had about 5 warehouses joined to each other and they were massive, plus there was an office and a kitchen, with running water and electricity. The kitchen had everything you needed, a fridge, toaster oven and a kettle, this place was called the Gadd st warehouse.
Ok so the story goes something like this...
One of the guys who found this warehouse jumped the fence and found a way in. In the office on the table were 3 things. The first thing was a box with letters, invoices a bunch of stuff about what this place was used for; it was a leather shoe factory. The second thing was a computer that worked and the third thing was the keys to the front door, also keys for the warehouse over the road. Pretty cool, so yeah a small crew moved in and that's how I came to do this painting...
