Sculpture symbolises community's art

25 Sep, 2008 02:27 PM
THE final piece of the puzzle for Monash's newest community centre is now in place.

On Tuesday, Mayor Paul Klisaris officially unveiled the Stilt Walkers sculpture at the Wellington Reserve Community Centre in Mulgrave.

The Stilt Walkers sculpture by Melbourne artists Velislav Georgiev and Tor Roxburgh is the first in a series of public artworks commissioned by the Monash public artwork program.

Mayor Klisaris said public art was a means of remembering and celebrating who we were as a community.

Mulgrave Neighbourhood House president Brenda Gabe said the three figures were symbolic of different community groups coming together as one in the centre.
