An art installation consisting of eight Hills Hoists clothes lines complemented by eight 'mums hanging out washing' is seen at Bondi Beach on May 1, in Sydney, Australia. The installation is the latest in a series of surrealist works by artist Andrew Baines, this time to highlight the loss of the typical backyard due to the increase of high density living. The Hills Hoist is considered the epitome of Australian backyards, with Bondi Beach considered Sydney's backyard.
