The Domain, Veil of Trees

"Veil of Trees" is an art installation located in the nature strip between the two sides of Mrs Macquaries Road at The Domain, just outside the Royal Botanic Gardens. It was created in 1999 by Janet Laurence and Jisuk Han. It consists of a line of forest red gum tree plantings and glass panels embedded with seeds, ash, honey, resin with fragments of prose and poems by Australian writers, inspired by the landscape.

  8. I hate to think of all your wonderful photos I have been in the months I have been away from my computer. Your area has some of the most beautiful works of art out where people can commune with them. This one is beautiful.
