The Entry Statement arcs the existing rail tracks as a geometric progression into the air, retaining the sleeper staccato rhythm of carriage sway.

The transformation of a timeless courtship ritual by the bowerbird into a contemporary public artwork borrows the essence of his installation: its avenue; entrance; precious objects and two enfolding stick constructions. The passage of people through animates its presence through performance.

Tiers projects away from the shelter of its host and in direct attitude to the sky and these primal elements. The geometric progression of materials, including a magnified glass image of trees reflected in water, ascends in sympathy with the axis of the former building.

With the awareness of climate change, the element of water has been transformed from an anticipated resource to a precious spring. As a colony of sculptures in the roundabout, their inverted form changes them from sunshade and rain shelter to light receptor and water collector.

This cenotaph cradles a metal obelisk in a granite saddle pointing towards eleven o’clock. This physically connects the two elements of the memorial and compels the passer by to walk within the formal, sacred space.

The sculptures reinforce the role of cycleways as community in motion with the parts of a bicycle deconstructed, distorted and reformed as sculptures. Students from Bossley Park High School designed one of the markers with us.

The sculpture refers to the toppling of bed heads and includes mist within the hollow of the metal. Some of the nurses saw the artwork as acknowledging the hospital site as a traditional healing place for the community.

The fence imagery responded to the signature figs and oak trees growing in the vicinity and was cast to reference the tradition of iron filigree in existing architectural flourishes.

The markers have responded to the local natural environment as well as the prior history of the area as a munitions site. They function as orientation signs, reinforcing a cohesive language within the landscape.

The sound sculptures as bronze horns amplify the sound of the old creek whose passage had been channelled into pipes. This artwork reveres prior surface water still flowing underneath the overlaid strata.
