While the journey in many ways began in late 2021 – when artist Lindy Lee was commissioned by the National Gallery of Australia (NGA) to create a signature sculpture for its 40th anniversary – that journey truly starts today.
Travelling approximately 1250 kilometres via oversized haulage vehicles, Lee’s Ouroboros will make its way with a police escort across three states, journeying from Brisbane – where the sculpture has been fabricated over the past two years by the UAP team in consultation with Lee – to its new resting place in front of the NGA.
