‘no thing after another’ seeks the engagement of a hidden tableau visible through select peep holes which offer a view onto the changing spatial identity of central Footscray. Bulldozed lots and worksites are synonymous with the shifting urban landscape. These transitional zones allow things to pass and go unheeded, collecting in anachronistic fissures within the metropolitan cobweb. Outmoded, temporarily functionless places have an enigmatic appeal and simultaneous revulsion. The disjunction between our perception and the world reaches us on the level of affect. The mood of this awareness is uneasiness meeting the strangely beautiful; an awareness of poetics. ACAB collective aims to preserve the unique poetic identity of the current Footscray-in-transit.
