"Darren Wardle is known for his hyper-real artworks of abandoned buildings and urban structures that appear to be drawn from a post-apocalyptic, sci-fi dystopia. Painted in a synthetic day-glo palette, they hint at the failures of modernism and its associated belief in a rational and orderly world."
(Shepparton Art Museum, Victoria)
Another example of this print is held in the collection of the Heide Museum of Modern Art, Melbourne.
