Botanic Gardens, Vivid Sydney, The Bower

"The Bower" is an artwork installed in the Royal Botanic Gardens, as part of the Vivid Sydney festival, which ran from 25 May to 16 June, 2018. It was created by Australian Ruth McDermott and Ben Baxter, supported by Xenian Lighting. It is inspired by one of the great builders of the natural world, the Australian male satin bower bird who creates impressive structures surrounded by blue objects with the sole aim of attracting a mate.
