Penfold Place and Hosking Place laneway art

The art installation on the corner of Penfold and Hosking Place is called "Infinity Forest" and is part of the Laneways: By George! Hidden Networks project. From the outside it just looks like a few trees in a wooden box (left) but when you step inside (right), the mirrored walls provide infinite reflections, which creates an illusion of being in a forest.

  1. I will have to wander through all these laneways this w/e. My daughter sent me the map a couple of weeks ago. You have tweaked my interest, now.

  7. Ann, this one is just north of Martin Place. Walking down Pitt Street towards Circular Quay, it's the first laneway on the right. There's a map of all the lanes on the Hidden Networks website.
