9.5m high x 18.5m long; aluminum, polycarbonate, plasma-cut Corten steel and programmed LED lighting
Location: Marriott Waters Reserve, Lyndhurst, VIC. Client: City of Casey, VIC
This sculpture alludes to the energy and movement in the nearby sport fields. The two arcs describe enormous energy meeting at a point of compressed power - exploding at night with high-voltage sparks. The shapes also echo the oval sports grounds and the movement of the ball. The plasma-cut drawings in the central gallery are replicas of football themed drawings provided by children from the City of Casey.

Design concept : Paul Johnson and Gail Mason
http://www.artventureaustralia.com/
19.0 x 8.0 x 5.5m high; painted and Corten steel
Client: City of Kingston, VIC Location: Dingley Village, VIC
As a response to the particular history of this region, “Tillage” embraces the fundamental process of preparing the soil for agriculture, for cultivation within the Australian landscape. The work is a series of suspended furrows arching above the ground in shapes that evoke metal tools, wheels, discs and other working farm machinery. At ground level is a matching series of furrows created from low planting that reaches from one side of the roundabout to the other.
