Lameroo Eastern Silo

In the centre of Lameroo, South Australia, Juddy Roller, had the immense honour of curating and producing what must be one of the most breathtaking silo artworks ever to be produced. This monumental artwork beautifies the landscape and symbolises this town’s journey through some of the most challenging farming conditions in the country. I am proud my team and I are in a position to lead this placemaking initiative, working with the community to drive regional development and strengthen both community and government partnerships. This masterpiece is a vibrant symbol of our dedication to the cultural enrichment of regional Australia and beyond

Bute Silo Art

It was an honour to have worked alongside artist Scott Nagy @scottnagyartist and Janne Birkner @krimsone and the Barunga West Councill on this Silo art project located in the town of Bute, South Australia. 

The artwork concept was based on representing women in regional areas, through telling the story of a girl pushing a vintage bike alongside the train tracks (like the ones that run alongside the silo). 

The theme requested by the community was bright colours, and local agriculture, flora and fauna. This has been represented through the use of the Rooster as well as Sheep, which is a prominent agricultural aspect of Bute.

The rooster is also the mascot for the Bute football, netball, basketball, cricket and tennis club.

The birds around her are Rainbow Bee-eaters, which are seasonal breeding migrants to South Australia. As well as a Superb Fairy Wren.

The background entails the Hummocks which are a range of hills in the northern Mount Lofty Ranges extending north from the eastern edge of Yorke Peninsula in South Australia.

The old stone shed is accurate to the area / time period.

Special thanks to Barunga West Council Mayor Leonie Kerley & Grants and Investment Coordinator Bridget Johns and the community of Bute for making this happen!

Horsham Silo Art

It has been an honour to have worked alongside artist @smugone and the Horsham Rural City Council on this project titled The Yangga Dyata which means ‘Walking on Country’. The silo art located on Wawunna Rd and Hazel St in Horsham, pays tribute to Yanggendyinanyuk, a Wotjobaluk warrior, whose strength and resilience inspires generations to come.

Yanggendyinanyuk was famously known for exceptional; tracking skills, helping to locate the Cooper-Duff children from the “Lost in the Bush” story, who had been lost for 9 days in the Wimmera Scrub. He was also known for his role in the first Indigenous cricket tour to England and witnessed a great loss of clan and Country.

A Gamaty, meaning ‘Black Cockatoo’ was his totem and stands proud alongside the completed Silo works.

A large thank you to the Barengi Gadgin Land Council Aboriginal Corporation, Aunty Jenni and the Plazzer Family for their support in this project.
