I came across this artwork when out caching recently and was very impressed. There is also some interesting artwork in the courtyard leading into the nearby library.
There were 4 stages to the project (which was launched on 26th October 2006):
Stage 1 - the artists ran workshops with the community, leading to draft designs
Stage 2 – the designs were presented for public comment
Stage 3 – the panels were painted by the artists with community assistance
Stage 4 – the panels were mounted on the building and officially opened on 26th April 2007.
