Tracey Deep
#Water Spirit
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
Australian
artist Tracey Deep is known for her sculptures and installations made of
found
natural objects that celebrate native Australian flora. Deep was commissioned
to develop a site-specific installation for the expansive wall space of the
lobby of AMP Angel Place, a commercial office development in the heart of
Sydney’s CBD.
Referencing Indigenous history, Water Spirit is a three-part installation that draws inspiration from the original natural landscape of the area, paying homage to the traditional owners of the land.
UAP
worked alongside Deep to translate her work from temporal natural materials,
into an up-scaled permanent installation. Comprised of 3 unique elements, the
artwork uses predominately welded cast aluminium branches bound together with a
waxed cotton, creating a meditative visual language through form, shape and
movement.
UAP was engaged from the onset of this project, developing a complete
art
strategy for development and working with the client and artist through all
stages of design development, fabrication and installation.
