Future energy landscapes & public art workshop: Apply now

The EOI process is now open for a design workshop that will imagine energy generating public art for the dynamic, rural Victorian town of Castlemaine. Join the internationally renowned, Land Art Generator Initiative (LAGI), Crosby Architects and Carbon Arts for a 3 day intensive studio from 7-9 October, as part of the Regional Centre for Culture program.

This is a unique and free professional development opportunity for up to 12 artists, designers, architects or engineers wanting to use cutting edge renewable energy technologies to creatively shape low-carbon urban landscapes. LAGI’s global competitions and commissions around the world have demonstrated that renewable energy can (and should) be beautiful!

The outcomes of the workshop will be presented to the public in an open studio format over the weekend of 13-14 October at the Goods Shed, Castlemaine, Victoria. EOI closes 24 August. For full details of how to apply, please download EOI document here.
