About the work

Commissioned by the City of Stonnington, Izett Street Wilderness, was created to bring a sense of wonder, discovery and intimacy to Izett Street Park.

"I wanted to create a place where people could sit, relax, and discover new things in the artwork every time they visited", said artist Marc Martin.

"By playing with scale and colour, I hoped to make a lush forest-like environment that immersed people in nature - large birds are hidden amongst the foliage as ladybirds, ants, grasshoppers and dragonflies interact with the plants".
