Battery Point Sculpture Trail - finally installed!



In collaboration with Jude Abell and writer Chris Viney, we were commissioned by Hobart City Council to develop an interpretive trail that explores and communicates the history of Battery point.

After nearly four years of planning, the nine sculptures are now finished, which lead you from the Silos in Salamanca, through to the industrial waterfront of Battery Point, and ends at Errol Flynn reserve. The sculptures are large numbers, relating to a fact about its location. Interpretive and directional panels, then guide you throughout the walk.

Last week the final sculptures were installed to complete the trail. The image above shows sandstone being placed within a steel cage for the 1833 sculpture, outside of the Silos in Salamanca . Opposite you can see the placing of the 12.43 sculpture.
