Lass sie das Licht spüren
Überblick
Die renommierte australische Künstlerin Emma Coulter wurde beauftragt, das charakteristische Kunstwerk für Yarrila Place zu schaffen. Ihr Entwurf besteht aus Stahl und Glas und vereint Malerei, Skulptur und Ingenieurskunst. Das Ergebnis ist eine Struktur, die sich an den geschwungenen Wänden emporwindet und das Atrium überblickt, das sie mit Farbe und Licht erfüllt.
„Yarrila“ bedeutet so viel wie erleuchten, erhellen, erstrahlen oder veranschaulichen. Die Inspiration für Emma Coulters Auftragswerk stammt von der Idee des Lichts, das sich an der Wasseroberfläche bricht und in Farben streut.
Da Emmas Werk ortsspezifisch ist, war es ihr wichtig, den Kontext des Ortes und seine Geschichte in die Gestaltung des fertigen Kunstwerks einzubeziehen. Neben dem Namen der Gumbaynggirr ließ sich Coulter auch von der historischen Bedeutung des 1878 an der Coffs Coast erbauten Leuchtturms South Solitary sowie der Architektur von Yarrila Place selbst inspirieren.
