COMMUNITY THE ART OF DISCOVERY Central Park Public Art Collection, Central Park, NSW
Central Park Public Art Collection Central Park, NSW Public art projects are an important part of a number of Frasers Property communities around Australia. Sydney’s iconic Central Park provides a backdrop for some of Sydney’s most exciting public artworks. The project’s $8 million public art collection welcomes locals and visitors to an area of Sydney that was closed to the public for more than 100 years, and draws intricate links between the city’s past, present and future. The most recognisable piece in the permanent collection is Halo, a golden ring that balances delicately on a 13-metre tilted mast. Halo interacts passively with nature, rotating slowly or spinning rapidly with the changing winds. The piece was inspired by the site’s long history as a brewery, the circular form inspired by the brewing vats.
