Marble Infrastructure Project
inserts a
series of marble sculptures by Cameron Kerr into public sites in and
around the main library precinct. Kerr’s sculptures are life-size
carved marble replicas of concrete city infrastructure objects such as
bicycle racks, curbs, roadside barriers, and bull nose barriers. By
shifting these objects’ material from mass produced cast concrete to
highly finished carved marble, the artist aesthetically transforms
everyday functional objects into extra-ordinary works of art.
