Architecture news & editorial desk
The City of Sydney commissioned a site-specific artwork for installation at the new Gunyama Park Aquatic and Recreation Centre in Green Square. Modelled on the handheld water carriers once used by Aboriginal communities along Australia’s east coast, the bronze sculpture, Bangala (water carriers) has been collaboratively created by Aboriginal Elder Aunty Julie Freeman and artist Jonathan Jones.
Considered the largest pool complex built in Sydney since the 2000 Olympics, the Gunyama Park Aquatic and Recreation Centre will service the fast-growing local population and is scheduled to open on 1 February 2021.
The Bangala artwork has two structures depicting oversized vessels made of bark or palm fronds and fastened to a stick and string. Positioned close to a rain garden near the centre’s Zetland Avenue entrance, Bangala will be a permanent reminder of the enduring importance of Eora culture and the area’s history. ....
