The newly developed Princes Wharf Forecourt has been transformed from an enclosed space into an open, public thoroughfare. The catenary lighting structure, designed by Circa Architects, is a prominent feature of this repurposed space and as darkness falls, Alluere awakens, enlivening the space with a kinetic display of light. Alluere, created by artists Aden Narkowicz and Elizabeth Barnett, was proudly commissioned by The Department of Treasury and Finance through the Tasmanian Government Art Site Scheme.
