My Perth public art commission looking bright and summery at a new early learning centre in North Coogee.

Fabricated from aluminium and hand painted, the work spans over 17m along the boundary fence.

‘The design uses an expressive graphic shape which often recurs in my artworks in different forms. It signifies many things, among them the vibrancy and energy of life. The organic shape references the surrounding natural coastal environment. The painted geometric design is based upon the sciences and provides an interesting contrast, while also connecting the artwork with the built form.’

I’ve received different interpretations by several people already, one of the areas I enjoy about abstraction.

It was a pleasure working with Wallace PM and congrats go to the team at BADGE Constructions on the stunning build. Thanks to Custom Aluminium, ART ON THE MOVE for the workshop space and Sean Byford for his assistance with painting and installation (sweltering conditions but we were blessed with the occasional breeze 😆).
