As an artist I am concerned with all wastage endemic in our society. By sourcing large amounts of used packaging waste to make enormous interactive public instalation sculpture I am demonstrating the amount of materials freely available. I aim to include as many people as possible in my art installations.
Today I talked with Alan about getting some frames made up – there are 100’s of ideas! Looking forward to participating in this worthy cause.

This project gives me hope for future similar projects here in Cairns. This Such project aims to change perceptions through eco-conscious public art.

For the 2015 CAIRNS CHILDREN’S FESTIVAL Tank 4 will become a recycling solar system where visitors travel through a cardboard maze of space, planets and rockets to a reimagined alien world.
The maze will be a sustainable dream, constructed from donated, found and repurposed materials – a cacophony of interspatial ideas facilitated by artist-in-residence Ruby Boussard.
Workshops to help build the giant rocket and maze are being run in March and over the school holidays. Participants will be instrumental in the final outcome at CAIRNS CHILDREN’S FESTIVAL 2015 – Sunday 10th May.
