Public Art in Darwin

Council aims to enhance Darwin as a centre of cultural excellence by commissioning works of public art that celebrate, mark and reveal aspects of community life and most importantly, provide the community with artwork to interact with, explore and enjoy.

The selection process for Council led public art commissions includes consultation with community members, stakeholders and key arts sector representatives, in keeping with the principles outlined in City of Darwin’s Public Art Master Plan.

Aly de Groot’s Intertwined commission has provided Council an opportunity to secure a major work of excellence, adding to Darwin’s cultural collection and fulfilling Council’s goals to support the growth and development of the arts.
