Queen Victoria Building, Lunar New Year, Pig

This installation is in the central atrium, beneath the historical dome, of the Queen Victoria Building (QVB). This peach blossom tree, which is 6 metres tall and more than 4 metres in diameter, has been created as a Wishing Tree for the Sydney Lunar Festival. The blossoms are actually hundreds of tiny felt piglets, in celebration of the Year of the Pig.
