Abstract

This paper discusses recent drawing projects of Wangi Power Station exhibit ed as part of Counternarratives (Watt Space Gallery, January 5-28, 2021) that supplement the existing archive of drawn and photographic material from the period. These creative works explore hybridised digital and analogue technology and document the dereliction and decay of this highly complex and threatened building that sits at a critical junction in the history of the twentieth century. The authors of this work develop different but related methods to represent Wangi in its current state of abandonment, with each author bringing their own toolkits and modes of representation to develop a more complete and nuanced picture of industrial ruination.
