ART & PLACE

Potts Hill

Description– Potts Hill was the site of Sydney’s water delivery infrastructure. Guppy & Associates curated public art exploring the part water plays in urban life. The use of recycled water artefacts and engagement with local schools was central to art in this new medium density residential area of Bankstown. Work with Place Design Group enabled integration of art and landscape.
