ART Apartments Adelaide Featuring Artwork by the Kaurna Meyunna Community
GuavaLime’s Flinders Street precinct celebrates another major milestone this week with the practical completion of ART Apartments, a residential development which sold out in record time.
Alongside this, we also saw the final finishing touches on ART Apartments’ eight storey installation on the exterior of the building. Considered the tallest in South Australia, it was commissioned by GuavaLime and completed by artists from the Kaurna Meyunna community, traditional owners of the land.
The aim was to create a piece of community art which captures the vibrance and rich culture of the Flinders Street precinct. Using a variety of indigenous and contemporary symbols, it depicts the traditional year cycle, carefully balancing female and male aspects of Kaurna culture.
