In addition to reflecting his relationship with nature and the Australian landscape, the rich green cover and bold serif typeface of End Street offer a certain grandness, iconising McKenna’s humble artworks and speaking to his long career as an artist. The thick margins and abundance of white space give the works room to breathe and further emphasise the overall theme of solitariness.
        ‘Spanning various decades, the works … speak in the same humble, meandering cadence as the best of his output. Unimposing in their scale and spare in their information, these paintings, drawings, painted ceramic tiles and sculptures offer vantages on a life lived alone (bar the cat or the dog).’ (Perimeter Editions, 2019)
