Mick Hargreaves

a cattle station in the Northern Territory, Australia

Mick Hargreaves finds himself amidst sprawling, crimson horizons of the Northern Territory, entrusted with safeguarding a domain kissed by the sun. His solitude often sings in the whispers of phantom smoke on starry nights and the echoes of voices from a crate filled with the remnants of erstwhile cattle station workers. A life of watchfulness has imbued in him a sense of transient custodianship.
