Shifting Patterns

This hand-painted mural investigates patterns as structural and conceptual frameworks.  The artwork plays with the effect that repetition has on the viewer, and the way that abstract shapes generate meaning that is open to personal interpretations and context.

It aims to prompt a critical awareness of the patterned structures that shape our urban environments and influence our daily lives while bringing some visual interest to an otherwise unremarkable alleyway.

The Floor is Lava

The ground is burning hot lava – only the spots are safe for standing on.

As soon as someone shouts “the floor is lava!”, everyone has just five seconds to get onto a spot. Too slow? You’re out!

Many thanks to Achilles Properties. Special thanks to PB Tech for installing the lights and making this laneway a whole lot safer.

This project received funding from Nelson City Council ad Arts Council Nelson.
