Wynscreen - Wynyard Station Sydney
23 Metre x 3 Metre Video Artwork
2017
I was commissioned by Transport NSW and Cultural Capitol to make a public video art work as part of the redevelopment of Wynyard Station. The work remixes Australia’s post colonial criminal history for 40,000 people a day.
Played on an awe inspiring 23 metre by 3 metre screen the work re-illustrates 1920’s era mugshots from the Sydney Living Museum as monsters, ghosts and spirits to ask questions about Australia’s deifying of our criminal passed.
