I (Heart) Canberra

I used to be just like you, disenchanted with Canberra. Then I travelled, went overseas, saw the world and realised that there's nowhere else I'd rather be. Below you will find some of my reasons why.

The Barbed Maze is an art installation where Denise Higgins and Gary Smith have made barbed wire panels and mirrors into a metaphor that explores the dark labyrinthine recesses of the mind.

In the foyer of ActewAGL House in Civic is The Journey - an artwork in light by Robert Foster. The work consists of 37 pieces. To me, the light filled shapes that jut out from the floor look like sharks teeth! The LED lights interact with you and change colour when you walk by.

I have previously posted a night view of the sculpture here.
