URBAN EYES COFFS HARBOUR

Public art inspired by nature

8/6/2016

I attended the Australian Institute of Architects Archimeet conference in Port Macquarie recently, where one of the speakers was Sydney artist Jennifer Turpin, whose practice Turpin + Crawford produces public artworks described as 'collaborations with nature'. Some of their works include Halo at Central Park in Sydney and Tied to Tide in Pyrmont: incredibly complex and creative projects requiring high levels of multi-disciplinary collaboration similar to the architectural process on an experimental building design. The way in which the works move with the elements, be it the wind or the tide or waves from passing boats, is subtle and full of beauty. Made me think of Coffs Harbour being a place with such close proximity to nature and its potential for such public art, and how this could help to foster a nuanced and respectful sense of place linked to our beautiful surroundings.
