Place to Place, Curtin Exchange Precinct

Title: Place to Place
Artist: Warren Langley
Date: 2022
Client: Curtin University
Location: Exchange Precinct
Place to Place is a single artwork installed across three sites at Curtin University’s new Exchange Precinct.
Artist Warren Langley’s latest work is a series of nodal artworks which complement the choreography of pedestrian movement. By day, the glass surface functions as reflective mirrors creating continual dialogue between the viewer, the landscape and the built environment. At night, the glass surface exudes a soft coloured glow, functioning as wayfinding elements through the live in learning precinct.
The materiality of the artworks, the playful nature of their reflections, the optimism and anticipation provided by the evening glow assists in humanising and activating the public spaces.
The team at Tilt Industrial Design were key collaborators, supporting Warren with the design and delivery of this major new artwork for the University.
Check out the gorgeous day to night transition of the artwork at Banksia Common. So lit.
