‘An Eventful Path’is a visionary public installation that celebrates and commemorates the intense festivity at Sydney Olympic Park created by events such as the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games, Paralympic Games and the 2003 Rugby World Cup. The installation is a 45m long path comprising blocks of cast coloured glass, stainless steel channel, fluorescent lights and honed concrete pavement.

The composition of coloured glass sumbolises the many components required to stage international events of this scale. The linear path is an abstract time line celebrating the past and looking to wards the future. During the day, the installation appears seamlessly integrated into the station forecourt. At night, it turns into a beautiful, glowing line of colours and people are attracted to walk along it’s length, reading the inscribed plaques as they travel.

Installed as a complete work, it evolves over time with the inscription of bronze plaques to commemorate each new major event held at the Sydney Olympic Park. The installation will only commemorate ‘major events’ of the calibre of the Sydney 2000 Olympic and Paralympic Games and the 2003 Rugby World Cup.
