Bower is a smudge on the horizon, a hatch traced in the air with charcoal. Inside, an intimate cradle from which to observe the natural landscape of Barangaroo. The feminine qualities of the nest acknowledge the Eora tribral women whose name is given to the park.

The artwork creates a cave for reflection; an opportunity to inhabit the view. It invites the passers-by to climb in and settle. The living womb and the enveloping charred exterior signify forces of renewal and extinction in the primordial landscape.
