devil’s hole in one
The Hole Truth project’s most recent hole –The Devils Hole (in-one) - is being created by one of Australia’s most exciting contemporary artists, Cameron Robbins. [www.cameronrobbins.com]
Cameron is well known for his Double Vortex sculpture which was commissioned by the City of Melbourne’s CH2 (Council House 2); his extraordinary Depot project created during the decommissioning of Dandenong’s Grenda bus depot,[ featured on the ABC’s Sunday Arts Program]; and his Solar System sculpture on the StKilda foreshore which is a 1:1 billion scale model of the solar system, wrapping 5.9 kilometres around Port Phillip Bay.
Part artist, part scientist, part engineer and part alchemist, Robbins’ kinetic sculpture will bring another exciting dimension to this already fabulous project.
Cameron Robbins’ brief has been to interpret the geology, history, biology and/or anthropology of Lake Tyers – one of East Gippsland’s most iconic and beautiful lakes – in the form of a golf hole!
Cameron will be on-site at Nowa Nowa : Sun Sept 6 to Sun Sept 13, and again on Monday Oct 19 to Saturday 24. Then back for the opening weekend on Melbourne Cup Weekend.
The Hole Truth project will officially open on Melbourne Cup Weekend with music and minigolf on the Saturday afternoon (31 October). It’s just one of the highlights of the Seldom Seen Art Trail happening on that weekend across eight community artspaces in Bairnsdale, Metung, Nungurner, Lakes Entrance, Nowa Nowa, Orbost, Marlo and Buchan.
