Public Art

You may have noticed this Council comissioned mural on the shared path below the baseball diamond at Bicentenial Reserve. It is the work of Shane Haurama, indigenous artist. We have asked Shane to apply a similar treatment to the big green bike locker on the east side of Artarmon Station. Having seen a small scale mock up of what he has in mind at our recent Bike Committee I can't wait to see the full scale version.
Post Script : At the last Bike cttee Meeting (22/4) we were advised that "The artwork on the bike lockers will no longer be completed by Shane Haurama due to personal problems. James Brocklebank in liaison with Jacky Talbot (council’s Arts & Cultural Manager) has since engaged a new artist who has developed a new design for the lockers. The new artwork is simpler and is no longer an aboriginal design. Work on the lockers will start shortly and will be completed by the end of the financial year..." Too bad.. I love Shane's work
