Dismiss By Simon McInnes Normal text size Motorists may well be familiar with sculpture Fire Within Two on the M1 Freeway at the Kororoit Creek Road intersection between Melbourne and Geelong. It was the creation of sculptor Adrian Mauriks, who has died following a battle with cancer. Mauriks, the creator of many notable sculptures in Melbourne, including the installation Silence at Docklands, became known for his prolific volume of sculptural work. Adrian was born in Holland and emigrated to Australia with his family in 1957. The family were in the printing business and Adrian completed his apprenticeship in printing before developing an interest in painting. In 1965, he travelled to England and Europe with his wife, Mary, and the two years they spent wandering through art galleries ignited his passion for art.
