Public Art Expression of Interest Form
Council is seeking Expressions of Interest (EOI) from local First Nations artists for a number of permanent public artwork commissions as part of the new Sanctuary Point Public Library scheduled to open in 2024.
There are three public artwork opportunities within the Sanctuary Point Library site:
- Freestanding sculpture
- Embedded lighting artwork
- Sunshades
Before completing an EOI, please take a look at the Public Art - Scoping Document, EOI Public Art - Information and the Brewster Hjorth Architects' Fly Through Video.
It is anticipated that a different artistic team will be engaged for each opportunity, however you are welcome to nominate yourself to be considered for more than one option.
Suitably qualified First Nations artists are invited to submit an EOI to be assessed against the following Selection Criteria:
- Cultural Connection to the Bay and Basin area
- Demonstration of creativity and artistic merit
- Willingness to expand your artistic practice into the domain of large-scale Public Art.
We are not asking for detailed concepts at this stage.
Please complete the Online EOI Form below, or download an EOI Form from the Document Library on this web page, and email it to council@shoalhaven.nsw.gov.au, with reference number 71326e, by 5pm Monday 8 August 2022.
