2014 Vivid Sydney: Intrude #1
June 2014
Vivid Light transforms Sydney into a wonderland of 'light art' sculptures, innovative installations and grand-scale projections for all to enjoy.
May 23 - 9 June 2014
Some very large inflatable white rabbits, illuminated in stark white light, have invaded Sydney’s harbourside – however, it’s not exactly a scene from Godzilla. The bunnies of Intrude stand tall yet relaxed at 7m high and appear to be quite at home in their new patch.
Why rabbits?
These animals first travelled to Australia on the ships of the First Fleet and were brought ashore in cages in January 1788 at Sydney Cove – the very site of this installation.
Intrude references Australia’s cultural love affair with novelty 'Big Things' sculpture – Ballina’s Big Prawn, Goulbourn’s Big Merino and Coffs Harbour’s Big Banana, to name a few. And now, with Intrude, Vivid Sydney presents the Big Rabbits of Sydney.
