Coogee Chemicals, Five artworks for projection [2024]

Coogee Chemicals, City of Kwinana, WA / Multiple Artworks for projection  [2024]

Coogee Chemicals, working closely with the City of Kwinana, made a decision to provide art to the community by projecting art onto Coogee’s newly built tanks alongside Patterson Road. The focus theme of artworks is ‘The Heart of Industry’.

These new tanks, partly funded through the Federal Government’s strategic fuels grant program, were completed in 2023. A 4K projector, a higher resolution version of the projector brand used on the Sydney Opera House, has been installed, and with special hardware and software, the art will be projected onto the curved surface of the tank with the minimum distortion possible.

I created a series of five related artworks for projection inspired by the local history of Kwinana. Artworks are rotated together with artworks from five additional artists: Carla Gottgens, Brendan (Hope) Lewis, Andrew HC McDonald, Roly Skender, Wade Taylor.
