Awaba House Mural
Public Art
Acrylic Paint on Marine Plywood
10 metres x 1.8 metres
2019
In 2019 I was awarded a commission by Lake Macquarie City Council to create a 10 metre by 2 metre mural. The mural is installed at Awaba House, a local community centre, adjacent to the gallery, that’s being rebuilt following a tragic fire.
The mural shows a gathering of some of the unique creatures that live in the surroundings around Awaba House. We see Grey Kangaroos, Lyrebirds, Dragonflys, Bandicoots, Owls, Snakes, Tree Frogs and People. The work optimistically emphasises our ability to experience this place together.
