PUBLIC ART IN DARLING HARBOUR
The Darling Harbour public art program sought to communicate, educate and engage the public. All artists were provided with extensive information on the site and its history, including heritage interpretation strategy. Artists were selected following consideration of their works and their response to a particular aspect of the site.

The activation is an interactive digital experience open to the public at ICC Sydney. Developed by Brett Leavy and Bilbie XR Labs – an award-wining First Nations digital storytelling enterprise, the Metropolitan Local Aboriginal Land Council (MLALC) and with the support of the Investment NSW.
