Lunar Lanterns have been installed around Circular Quay to celebrate the Chinese New Year Festival. In the Chinese zodiac, every year is symbolised by an animal and this year is the Year of the Rooster. Many of the lanterns were seen around the city last year but some them have been changed this year. The Sheep lantern has been installed along the foreshore of Sydney Harbour at East Circular Quay. The Norwegian Star cruise ship can be seen in the background at the Overseas Passenger Terminal, near the Sydney Harbour Bridge. It was originally designed by Raymond Leung, with current design by Alexandra Sommer and Brad Clark. The Zodiac symbol of the Sheep can be characterised as tasteful, warm and intuitive. The sensitive Sheep offers a quiet life of creativity and compassion.
Can't say that I have seen that before.

This one really stands out!
ReplyDeleteVery nice, informative and interesting presentation.
ReplyDeleteLooks nice! Do you know what material were used? Looks like the sheep is made out of paper but I am sure something more resistible was used. #WordlessWednesday
ReplyDeleteIt's fabric which has been hand painted and glittered to look like white bone china with blue patterns.
DeleteI love that cruise ship, quietly waiting in the background. at the Overseas Passenger Terminal. Cruise ships are so sleek and handsome.
ReplyDeleteWOnder if that cruise ship comes here? must check it out. But that lantern is a very cool idea.
ReplyDeleteIt's the first time I've noticed the Norwegian Star in port. It's very colourful.
DeleteGood eye. Timely material. Informative.
ReplyDeleteNeat picture! Such a pretty ram.
