Unfurling

The serpentine coil of a slithering snake, the gentle curl of a fresh fern frond, a sundew flower on the verge of releasing its sweet ensnarement - these organic forms from the Wallum landscape inspire the dynamic spiraling patterns of Unfurling. Rising from the earth like ancient sentinels, these sculptural forms create a gateway that transforms from day to night, connecting viewers to the rhythms of the natural world

Layers of Weathering Steel
Crafted from 360 layers of 10mm weathering steel, each layer is meticulously inlaid
with stainless steel elements that trace delicate patterns across the surface. These
inlays create an intricate choreography of light and shadow, while the weathering
steel's natural patina evolves with time, deepening the sculpture's connection to its
environment.
RGBW pixel lights mounted along the sculpture's face illuminate at dusk, displaying
motion-triggered footage captured from local Wallum flora and waterways. This
fusion of digital imagery with industrial materials creates a dynamic installation that
reflects both the ancient patterns of nature and contemporary innovation, offering
viewers a constantly evolving experience of their environmental heritage.
