The Magic Tree

Artist: Coral Lowry

Year of Work: 2006

Location: Windsor Park, South Perth - Near Heritage House

Description: “The idea behind the ‘Magic Tree’ was that it had been planted in the Park and, over time, morphed into a variety of animals,” she said. “This is no ordinary tree, as stemming from the tail-like trunk are leaves that certainly require a closer look, due to the different part of various animals that can be seen within each leaf. “I wanted the Tree to be a guessing game where children could try and work out the different types and parts of the animals embodied in it.”
