Monument to Unfinished Business by Compound Eye - on Fall 09 Colorado Review cover

Monument to Unfinished Business

Perhaps on first inspection this appears to be 'just another urbex toilet', but look again at the reinforced glass partitions. Glass because this toilet is in the secure adult isolation wing at St John's, where dangerous & unpredictable patients would be under close observation, even in the bathroom.

Hippo-cratic Loafing by Compound Eye - on Fall 09 Colorado Review cover

Hippo-cratic Loafing

One last detail from the 'sea life' mural at St John's. Curiously, creatures from rivers, seas & oceans all around the world convene on these walls - maybe they're on a Thomson holiday?

The Kraken Abates by Compound Eye - on Fall 09 Colorado Review cover

The Kraken Abates

Just enough of this octopus survives to give the impression of the whole beast. Whether by chance or design, the eyes have endured and make an almost hynoptic focal point... as if the octopus is not peeling away, but merely hiding behind some pink coral outcrop ready to strike.

You're gonna need a bigger boat... by Compound Eye - on Fall 09 Colorado Review cover

You're gonna need a bigger boat...

It had to be done... You can't not use one of the best, most chilling, lines in cinema history.

Obviously a Great White, from the pointed snout & forward projected teeth/lower jaw, this shark is either rather sunburnt or has just eaten Alex Kintner - complete with li-lo...

Detail from a somewhat imaginative 'sea life' mural at St. John's Lunatic Asylum.

Doors of Imperception... by Compound Eye - on Fall 09 Colorado Review cover

Doors of Imperception...

Ruined doors, from the aborted reclaimation of St John's, stacked and quietly rotting away.

The nursery phone number is still visible when viewed large.
