A permanent mural and lighting installation commissioned by The City of Melbourne on the Melbourne Central facade within Drewery Alley, Melbourne CBD. The work integrates multiple custom LED lighting treatments, including bespoke flickering elements designed to evoke flame, transforming the narrow laneway into an immersive, oversized shrine.
Drawing on her Chinese ancestry and secular spiritual symbolism, the work responds to the cultural context of the surrounding Chinatown precinct. Conceived as a moment of discovery within the urban environment, the installation invites passersby into a space of pause, reflection and shared wonder.
Lights will turn on at 7pm - 10pm each night.
ANCESTRAL WORSHIP
Many thanks to The City of Melbourne for funding this dream project, Opto and Additive Lighting for meeting all of my lighting demands, the fantastic team who assisted me on this, my producers Emily Sweeney and Linda Catalano and the Traditional Owners of the land on which this installation is created on.
