“Speedway 3460” by Photographer Kial Menadue

Originally from Melbourne, Australia, photographer Kial Menadue now resides in the small country town of Daylesford, where he completed his most recent series, “Speedway 3460”: an intimate portrait of Victoria’s most unique and enduring speedway club.

The speedway experience is one of organized chaos.
An unapologetic pang to the senses.
A dissolution of the distinction between man and machine .

At times sport like.
A theatre of ego and personality.

A sacred oval of red dirt.
Suspended in time.
Hidden in Australian bush.

Stubborn. Unmoving.
Surviving on the smell of an oily rag.
