Lake Ballard is a long way from anywhere - at the end of a dirt road 51km west of the township of Menzies, which is 130km north of Kalgoorlie in the Western Australian goldfields.
In 2003, Antony Gormley was commissioned to create 'Inside Australia' - an installation of 51 steel alloy sculptures of Menzies residents that dot the salt lake. Out in the absolute middle of nowhere. I was there April 2014 and then again June 2019.
