Brief
Concept
Description: |
This artwork is a
celebration of the Horse Racing Heritage in the Fremantle area.
The design concept combines historic information (Timor ponies
raced in the first public horse race in Western Australia in
1833 along this beach) and contemporary imagery in the form of
line drawings. These line drawings have been overlapped to form
the one skeleton structure that runs along the top of the sand
dunes. |

Brief
Concept
Description: |
We chose to incorporate
the theme of the old proverb into the wall designs. The proverb
being that "to develop and grow, children need two things -
roots and wings". We felt that this best summed up
belonging and positive nurturing - a theme encouraged in the
artwork brief. The core elements we worked with were the nest,
the home, the tree, and the flock of birds, all symbolically
reinforcing the central idea associated with family and a sense
of belonging. |

Brief
Concept
Description: |
Theme - sense of place.
Following our meetings with the kids we decided that creating an
informal map of the state would help with the feeling of
isolation and disorientation felt by many of young offenders.
Artworks symbolising Western Australian towns and geographical
features mark the paved mall area. Kalgoorlie (and the dry
interior) is represented by water pipes set with 178
"gold" brass taps - only one tap provides water and is
a drinking fountain. |

OF HISTORY |
| Description: |
Two of 30 pillar
embellishments for Joondalup Library Walkway |
| Materials: |
Cast bronze with brass
frame set into the walkway pillars |
| Client: |
City of Wanneroo |
| Architect: |
James Christou |
| Size: |
Individual size - 300 mm
x 200 mm x depth of 30 mm |
| Location: |
Joondalup library,
Joondalup, Western Australia |

Brief
Concept
Description: |
The artwork was inspired
by local history and extracts are included from "The
Pioneers, a Story of Wanneroo". It is intended that each
pillar is an interesting destination and at the same time acts
as part of a strong graphic line (through repetition), that
emphasizes and enriches the central spine quality of the walkway
leading to the library. |
