An alternative, digital projection by artist Nathaniel Stewart / oldmatee788 that celebrates our place, creativity and the interlink of our many cultures.
The installation at The Bridge, a third story walk bridge at Kingston City Hall that’s visible by thousands of commuters travelling along Nepean Highway, focuses on the energy that being passed from the sky to the earth through rain, thunder, clouds and local animal footprints. It displays a shared celebration of our place, creativity and the interlink of our many cultures, with new age art intertwined with ancient land and history.
Collection of the Land // Rain Shaker is a channel through the artists eyes that simultaneously depicts shared genuine common ground being the backyard that we all live in.
