Moon Harvest features hybrid creatures inspired by vulnerable flora and fauna of Moreton Bay and the Sandgate region. ‘Swimming’ by the etched netting designs, they evoke memories of the myriad of wondrous creatures found ‘washed up’ on the beach by ongoing tides. The text references local species names in an attempt to highlight the fragility of this environment and an awareness of our relationship with it. Installed as a part of the Brisbane Foreshore Parklands Project upgrade in December 2006.
