This fountain featuring a fascinating mosaic with an aquatic theme is located in the pedestrian mall outside the community centre, in the northern suburb of Crows Nest.
A very common design composition one can find in Australian University students projects.. I have seen such designs many times on both drawings and architectural scale models! This geometry of this one is beautiful ...
An interesting building and a spectacular fountain with that intricate mosaic work...they work toether so well with their rounded lines! Great photo for Waterey Wednesday...:)
Oh, I'm glad I came back to see this wonderful mosaic, Jim. You know I really like all sorts of urban art. I am not one to nudge anyone to come to my blog, Jim, but I know you too like art and I think you really might like the installation in Kobe I posted about this week.
I came over for Watery Wednesday and forgot where I was, got lost in Sydney! I'm from Oz, and lived in Sydney, and it was like a tour of home!! Have lived in India for 10 yrs...thanks for the tour!

ReplyDeleteThanks, Hootin' Anni. The flooding has been happening out in the bush and country areas but we've had our fair share of rain in the city recently too.
ReplyDeleteLove the mosaic! I haven't gotten to that art form yet -this pic makes me want to jump in (art wise, LOL, not jump into the water:) )
