Bird Hide
As a part of Terrain festival, a Centenary of Canberra project, Wellspring involved local artists in the making of a sculptural Bird Hide. Located next to the dam and made from intertwined eucalyptus branches, poplar, hazel and adobe render, the Hide encloses a space for quiet observation of the natural life around the dam. The sculptural qualities of the branches and textures of the adobe surround the user and connect us with place, and the natural world.
