Gippsland Thylacine, part of the Bronze yarns sculpture park at Coronet Bay created by David Murphy in 2013 CALLING local artists, here’s your chance to create a contemporary and enduring public artwork for the Bass Valley and hinterland region.
Artists are invited to submit design concepts for an “innovative and engaging creative artwork” as part of Bass Coast’s annual public art program. The commission is worth up to $47,000.

In line with council guidelines, the work should have an environmental/agrarian theme and represent the local area. That theme could include local food and wine produce. A site visit will be held on Monday, December 3. Register for it at Public.Art@basscoast.vic.gov.au
Artists have been asked to propose their preferred sites within the region. A community reference group of local residents and business owners will oversee the project and ensure the work is relevant to the area. A key aim for the commission is that it provides an additional attraction to the area, drawing visitors to explore the Hinterland region.
Visit Bass Valley and Hinterland Public Art for more information. But don’t muck around because submissions close at midnight on Sunday, December 16.
Previous works commissioned under the public art program include David Murphy's Bronze Yarns at Coronet Bay, created by David Murphy in 2013, the sculpture Site Lines by Bonnie Charles and Sarah Hicks at Kilcunda and Anton Hasell's Harmony Bells in the Cowes Town Square.
