Artist: Julia Silvester Year: 2008 Location: Eltham Leisure Centre, 40 Brougham Street, Eltham
Julia Silvester's glass features on the façade of the Eltham Leisure Centre evoke a sense of the landscape as it once might have been.
The windows depict sandblasted silhouettes of a Riparian Woodland floodplain interspersed with minute images of the Eltham Copper Butterfly, the Charming Spider Orchid, and handwritten stories and letters by pioneers and locals from the area.
The planting of Kangaroo Grass outside the north façade is also seen as an extension of the landscape from the past into the present.
