Public Art Initiative- Project 3: Centres Functional Art Trail
This project will create a suite of functional art trail that will be used at multiple sites in Logan.
Art opportunity
Installation of a functional art trail with art installations to serve a dual purpose of being functional objects and artworks. They may take the form of sculptural seating elements, shade structures, bike racks and play elements. Functional artworks can provide platforms for rest, relaxation and recreation, and add a distinctive flavour to the urban environment and should provide “Instagrammable” opportunities across centres across the city from major, district, neighbourhood to local centres in Divisions 3,5,7,8, 10 and 11.
