These pylons and walkway at Circular Quay have been illuminated for the Vivid Sydney festival which runs until Monday night. “(B)right on time” was created by Tim Carr, Tim Hunt, Jo Black, Carter Leung and Mark Gilder. The bridge above carries the railway line to Circular Quay station and the Cahill Expressway sit above that. The vibrations of the trains coming and going above are synchronised with pulsating lights, varying the colour and intensity.
This artwork is located along the Circular Quay East foreshore, as part of the Vivid Sydney festival which ends tonight. “Positive Attracts” is created by Singapore artist Edwin Cheong. These life-size light statues have infra red sensors to detect when people are in close range and trigger changing rainbow LED lighting effects. Each one is named after a real life hero which visitors can guess from a famous quote at the base of each statue.
These light balloons representing giant jelly fish floating above Sydney Harbour were located on the foreshore of Circular Quay West, as part of the Vivid Sydney festival. “Jellight” was created by Simon Lee, Aamer Taher and Pascal Petitjean from Australia, Singapore and France. The jellyfish are departing the polluted oceans to escape into the universe like UFOs.
This was the view of Circular Quay and the Sydney skyline from the Sydney Opera House last night. Vivid Sydney is a festival of light, music and ideas which this year runs from 25th May to 13th June. Some buildings in the city have been lit up with coloured light projections. The lamps along the Circular Quay foreshore have been coloured blue and pink and produce some wonderful reflections here on the Opera House forecourt.
