I've been trying to create an entry for the Greenway prize. The Greenway goes along Hawthorn Canal from Iron Cove, along with the tramline (formerly a goods line) it meets in Haberfield through to Lewisham and Dulwich Hill . From there it continues down the hill to Cooks river. The council are creating a path joining bush remnants and parkland and parks etc along the route.
The prize is or artworks with themes of freshwater ecology, public transport, and the area/environment etc. So I'm sort of converting the stormwater drain/canal into a stream with ducks in a waterhole with a mashup of local landmarks, and a tram.
As it turns out I stuffed up the dates so I couldn't enter, but anyway I'll complete ith to maybe enter next year. Though after looking at this year's hang -slung on both sides of some randomly arranged temporary fencing plonked in the middle of a room, and without so much as some hessian backing- why would I bother?
Its now been entered in the Glebe art show starting tomorrow evening
This is the finished version
