Lendlease have commissioned a major site-specific contemporary artwork by Australian artist Reko Rennie to be painted over buildings, hoardings and rooftops covering 1500 square-metres and planned for completion at Barangaroo in early May.

Titled As the Crow Flies, Rennie’s commanding work will be installed over an impressive 1,500 square-metre footprint. One of Australia’s most respected contemporary artists, Melbourne-based Rennie explores his Aboriginal Kamilaroi/Gamilaroi identity through his work, provoking discussion around Indigenous culture in contemporary urban environments.

The large-scale, three-colour installation, including bright cobalt blue and neon pink, will be painted vertically and horizontally on to the exteriors and interiors of building elements and hoardings in Barangaroo’s exciting new retail district between Towers One and Two of the iconic International Towers Sydney (ITS) and Hickson Road. As the Crow Flies will extend into the exit area of the main car park and be painted on rooftops making the pop-aesthetic inspired installation clearly visible from nearby office towers.
