LUKE O’DONOHOE, OPEN ROAD, 2020

Location: Cnr Burt St & Throssell St (on Burt St)

“My text-based artwork aims to celebrate the town of Collie in an authentic and captivating way. Drawing from the artistic style of Rosalie Gascoigne, and her famous assemblages of found road signs, I have selected words that give voice to significant parts of Collie’s history, and collaged them across the wall. Words were also chosen that possessed a certain poetic energy and nostalgic quality.” Luke O’Donohoe
