Year: 1993
Category: Tiles/ Intergrated
Site: Joondalup Station
Location Details: Joondalup Station platform
Description:
A series of 30mm tiles along the outside of the concourse walls of the upper section of the station.
Artist/s Statement:
This artwork details the history of Joondalup, the visions and challenges of those who built the new city and the railway line, the thoughts and dreams of the drivers of the trains and the staff of the station, and the hopes and aspirations of the train travellers and local residents. The tiles are interwoven with more abstract images and words dealing with concepts of time and space. Such a fusion of images and text has been enabled by the rare combination of a writer working with a visual artist in such a context.
