Yarra City CouncilArtwork, other - Integrated artwork, Angharad Neal-Williams, View Point, 2026
... The artwork consists of 1000mm high laser-cut aluminium panels that depict sightlines observed and sketched by the artist on site at Quarries Park, March 2026. ...Animals Flora Cities Park N/A The artwork consists of 1000mm high laser-cut aluminium panels that depict sightlines observed and sketched by the artist on site at Quarries Park, March 2026. ...Beginning as sketchbook drawings at the park, this artwork is based upon a series of site drawings that map the landscape around Yambla Pavilion. Views from around the walking tracks and ovals are sketched from a range of perspectives. The drawings capture a mix of viewpoints across the site, coming together to form a shared landscape. It celebrates the ways the community collectively uses the park, the pavilion, the oval, the seating and shared facilities, highlighting how these spaces foster connection and bring people together. The fabrication process involved taking elements away from sheets of aluminium, revealing the drawing as the metal was removed. This process is a nod to the previous use of the site as a quarry, where materials were taken away to then create something new. Small off-cuts from the fabrication process are installed around the pavilion, adding to the space and extending the interplay of positive and negative form. The colours in the artwork are two-toned: the background a deep forest green to tie the artwork into the surrounding environment, with a dusty pink powder coating, a soft welcoming colour that aims to promote inclusion and create a public artwork that feels inviting to all.‘View Point’ is an integrated artwork that meaningfully engages with the Yambla Pavilion site and reflects the diverse communities that utilise its facilities. Its conceptual and artistic delivery is strongly aligned with the commission objectives outlined in the Yambla Concept Design Brief. ‘View Point’ (2026) was commissioned by Yarra City Council (Council) as part of the Yambla Pavilion redevelopment project, in accordance with Council’s Public Art Policy 2015-2020 Percent for Art scheme. The artwork consists of 1000mm high laser-cut aluminium panels that depict sightlines observed and sketched by the artist on site at Quarries Park, March 2026. It features floral, landscape and architectural motifs in a dusty pink hue against a forest green background. N/Aanimals, flora, cities, park -

Brochure for Holmsdale Convalescent and Rest Home, 257 Union Road, Surrey Hills Pamphlet Ephemera ...Holmsdale Convalescent and Rest Home was built by John Mawson for his sisters Muriel, Beatrice and Harriet (and ? Ethel or Dorothy), all nurses. It was named after the sailing ship that their parents, Frederick W and Mary Mawson and baby Beatrice migrated on from England in 1882. John was a partner in the Box Hill building firm Garre tt and Mawson. The sketch of the nursing home used in the brochure was his work. It was opened on Saturday 14 March 1936 by Mr M J Boyland, MLA. The home was closed in the mid-1950s and converted into 4 self-contained flats, one of which was occupied by the sisters in their retirement; the others provided them with an income. Initial photocopies of this brochure, an invitation to the official opening of Holmsdale, photos of the ship Holmsdale, passengers' ticket for Fred W Mawson, Mary Mawson & Beatrice Mawson and notes compiled by John Howden about his late aunts (Bea, Hadge & Mouse) were donated to the collection by Randy Johnson, a tenant of John Howden's in late 2004. Subsequent research papers and photocopies of other family ephemera from John Howden are also filed in the Mawson vertical file.A brown bi-fold leaflet advertising the Holmsdale Convalescent and Rest Home located at 257 Union Road, Surrey Hills under the direction of the Misses Mawson (late Australian Army Nursing Service A I F).

Brian blazed a trail through the New Guinea jungle which appears on some maps as Walpole’s Track, discovering and naming the ambush site Goodview Junction. ...Brian Walpole, the author, was a Australian Commando and special operations operative behind enemy lines in New Guinea and Borneo during WW2. Brian was a commando with the Australian 2/3 Independent Company. He went to New Guinea in January 1943 and remained until the fall of the Japanese base at Salamaua in September. He fought on the Bobdubi Ridge. His commanding officer was the well-regarded George Warfe, whose portrait was sketched by war artist Ivor Hele. Brian blazed a trail through the New Guinea jungle which appears on some maps as Walpole’s Track, discovering and naming the ambush site Goodview Junction. Soon afterwards (July 1943) Goodview Junction was the scene of a key campaign victory which contributed to George Warfe being awarded the Military Cross.Brian’s Special Operations training mostly took place at Careening Bay (Western Australia) and Fraser Island (Queensland). He arrived in Borneo at the time of the 9th Division’s landing at Labuan Island, and took part in two SRD operations – Colt and Semut 3. After the surrender, Walpole's work continued as many of the Japanese did not recognise the surrender and continued to fight on. Brian relates how on the 14th of September 1945 while still an operative in SRD he was able to save POWs from certain death and after a firefight arrested 10 Japanese soldiers at Simanggang Borneo. He was alone and had been assisted in the battle by 20 headhunters from the jungles along the Rejang River. One of the people saved was a young nurse in her 20s, Lena Ricketts. ww2, australian special operations, australian commando, new guinea, borneo, world war ii -

The invitation was sent out in the name of Lilian Foyle, the Warrnambool photographer and artist who produced the portraits and some of the sketches on the board. ...The invitation was sent out in the name of Lilian Foyle, the Warrnambool photographer and artist who produced the portraits and some of the sketches on the board. ...This is an invitation to the launch of the conservation and publication project for the Warrnambool Pioneer Honour Board. The invitation was sent out in the name of Lilian Foyle, the Warrnambool photographer and artist who produced the portraits and some of the sketches on the board. A person representing Lilian Foyle welcomed those who came to the launch. The Pioneer Honour Board, initiated by Edward Vidler, was first assembled in 1907 to mark the 60th anniversary of the founding of Warrnambool. It has the portraits of 204 pioneer men of Warrnambool and district and is one of the best examples of a pioneer honour board in Victoria. It now requires extensive conservation work and an appeal has been launched to cover the cost of this. A publication with biographies of the 204 men is also being prepared. This invitation is of great interest as it is connected to the Warrnambool Pioneer Honour Board which is one of the most important historical items in the city of Warrnambool and a work of art in its own right.This is a buff-coloured piece of paper with black printing and a black and white photograph of Lilian Foyle. There are also two ornamental patterns on two corners of the printing. ‘Lilian Foyle, photographer and artist, invites you to meet the men on the Warrnambool Pioneers Board at the launch of the conservation & publication project to be held at HeritageWorks on Sunday 17 September at 2.30 pm’warrnambool pioneer honour board, lilian foyle, edward vidler -
