Hossack — whose recent credits include the curation of the hugely successful Silo Art Trail in Victoria's Wimmera Mallee as well as a string of major street art
projects around Australia — sees the
project as a chance to respond to the broader public's growing appreciation for large -

Founded in 1979, the New York City - based practice established its identity through self - generated conceptual art and architecture installations, before reaching international prominence with large -
scale cultural and
civic projects such as the Blur Building at the Swiss Expo 2002 in Yverdon - les - Bains; the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston; the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts redevelopment
project and the High Line, both in New York; as well as the Broad museum in Los Angeles and the recently completed Zaryadye Park near Red Square in Moscow, which opened in September 2017.
