Botanic Gardens, Taronga Wild! Rhinos
"Taronga Wild! Rhinos" is an art event featuring a huge herd of wildly colourful rhino sculptures installed around Sydney from February to April 2014. This mass public art exhibition helps raise awareness and valuable funds for Taronga Zoo’s Black Rhino breeding program and conservation projects. This colourful rhino is located in the Royal Botanic Gardens, near Farm Cove. "Put A Lid On It" was created by Jane Gillings using discarded plastic container lids and bottle caps.
How cool!
ReplyDeleteSo cute and colorful!
ReplyDeleteCool art it is.
ReplyDeleteColorful, beautiful, fun!
ReplyDeleteWow! But ... I would be a bit concerned if I was that Rhino.
ReplyDeleteVery colorful.
ReplyDeleteVery, very colourful. I think the artist has painted the rhino with all of the colours under the rainbow. :)
ReplyDeleteNot thought that you can get so much colors with just plastic caps. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteLove it a lot. Very creative artwork.

Another good one! I like these rhinos.
ReplyDeleteSuch wonderful vibrant colors!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great way to get the word out about the project. Love it!
ReplyDeleteOh, great colors! I like it!
ReplyDeletePerhaps Koons would have gained points if his 'balloon' projects
ReplyDeletehad a do-good point to them! Nonetheless, a colorful sculpture!
Very skillful sculpture of the Rhino, and so ecologically conscious using bottle lids. The Rhinos need all the help they can get.
ReplyDeleteHe looks like a giant pinata!
ReplyDeleteCool texture. It looks like the rhino is covered with giant buttons. I like this installation a lot. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
ReplyDeleteColourful, indeed - spectacular :)
