The Galeries, mural
This stained glass mural is located above one of the Pitt Street entrances at "The Galeries" shopping centre, below the Citigroup Centre office block. It was created in 2000 by Marc Grunsiet, inspired by the lyrical calls of the Magpie, heralding the Australian dawn. The colours of the rising Sun progress from seashore to desert, presided over by the spirit of the songster. It is a companion piece to the larger installation, being at once a map of the land and its spirits.
Very colourful. I think I've seen it somewhere along the line.
