sea change by Lucy Barker


Along the route of the Sculpture walk, several of the benches are decorated with this webbing effect.

They are like the folding aluminium picnic chairs which used to be popular when I was younger.

Lucy Barker says on her website:

"For this work I have revived 5 existing benches around the Bondi - Tamarama walk by adorning them with colourful, vintage polypropylene chair webbing, a la beach chairs and folding aluminium chairs of lesiure. They become a reminder to stop, slow down and ponder how things have changed, and what may have stayed the same."

  2. Love these - they should leave them there. They'd be cooler on bare legs than the metal!
