Around the turn of the century, mysteriously reclusive Sir Herbert Klinok built an ambitious and highly secretive series of tunnels connecting the city of Sydney to enable movement of important goods and people without arousing attention.
Unbeknown to the public, his project twice helped avert nuclear war, secured the 2000 Olympic Games and determined the past eight Archibald Prize winners amongst many other achievements. Increasingly paranoid about who may have discovered his secret labyrinth, Klinok established a lookout post on Clarence St under the guise of a cafe.
Calling it Klink, the expansive view provided the perfect foil to keep a watchful eye on three of the disguised tunnel entrances. While rarely seen, Klinok is known to walk his pet pheasant on a lead at night and uses squid ink to authenticate the authorship of his letters.
