In one week each autumn you’ll find the Canberra Balloon Spectacular floating its way across Lake Burley Griffin.
Looking out a window from anywhere in the city; the sky will be a mixture of colours, movement, and imaginative balloons; as the skilled pilots navigate their balloons in the early morning breeze.

You’ll find the bright neon lights of Luna Park’s big mouth on the northern side of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Behind the brightly coloured open mouth a whimsical world of rides and entertainment awaits. It feels almost out of place in the natural beauty of the harbour, but offers genuine escape from the hustle of the nearby city in exchange.

About the artwork
Take a walk around the old Carlton and United Breweries site in the inner-north of Melbourne and discover a redevelopment of this iconic neighbourhood with experimental forms, vibrant colours and angles. So many angles.
Inspired by the colour, rhythm and movement of a waterfall, the western facade of the Bouverie Street apartments is a vibrant and playful facade. Shades of blues and whites cascade down the buildings height, bringing life to the facade and a natural wonder into the urban environment - - - studio505.

Walter Burley Griffin was the Architect behind the masterplan for Australia’s capital city, Canberra. And scattered amongst the “bush capital”, known for its extensive natural landscapes retained in the design, are roundabouts, and brutalist concrete buildings.
Long shadows from the low sun on a cool autumn day, this relief brings the carefully detailed brutalist facades to life.

About the artwork
Hidden by the buildings that surround them. Ordered only by the grid of the city’s streets. Small crowds swarm popular cafes and coffee shops looking for for a quick morning pick me up.

Australia’s capital city, Canberra, sits midway between Sydney and Melbourne along Australia’s east coast.
Known as Australia’s bush capital, Canberra was heavily influenced in its design by European cities - and accordingly it was planted throughout with deciduous trees that create a spectacular changing of the seasons year round.
In this work we visit the suburb of Deakin, south west of Parliament House, in late autumn to witness the tree lined streets signalling the change of seasons.

About the artwork
From daybreak on Saturday, thousands of city dwellers will begin their drive to the beach for a day by the water with friends. Their quick journey up the highway however becomes anything but quick as a “Lane Closed Ahead” sign appears on the horizon.

The glowing green neons stand out against the black night, gently illuminating the door and inviting you to discover the world within.

About the artwork
Australian Architects have a small obsession with “Off Form” concrete construction, especially for large walls that can be prefabricated in sections and craned in to place on-site. It’s fast, inexpensive (relatively), and achieves a strong architectural statement.
And of course here at Who is Henri we love the interplay of shadows and their buildings.
So for this work, we’re taking you on a walk through Melbourne - Australia’s home of the angle in design - to experience a beautifully cloudy and moody day.

About the artwork
On the morning of April 1st 1978, Sydney residents woke to the incredible sight of serial Australian entrepreneur Dick Smith towing an enormous iceberg up Sydney Harbour.
Smith had been doing the media rounds for some months explaining that he would float an iceberg from Antartica as an experiment to provide fresh water to drought-prone areas. His plan was to carve it into small ice cubes and sell them as ultra pure “Dicksicles” which he said would improve the flavour of any drink.
The morning radio shows were flooded with calls reporting sightings from daybreak, and tens of thousands of people took to the harbour to catch a glimpse of this incredible sight. And true to his word there he was, Australia’s favourite electronics nerd, environmental crusader, and all-round great Australian bloke Dick Smith triumphantly sailing up Sydney harbour atop a giant iceberg.
But of course, not everything was as it seemed. And the greatest April Fools Day joke to have ever duped a city was soon revealed.

About the artwork
We’re in Surfers Paradise for a night out on Cavill Avenue with friends.
A few too many drinks and the fuzzy bright lights spin around us as we make our way down the Avenue under the palm trees on to the beach to breathe in the sea spray and white noise of the crashing waves.

About the artwork
The suburb of Surfers Paradise sits at the centre of Queensland’s sparkling Gold Coast. It’s a bustling city full of tourist hotspots, hotels and backpacker accommodation. And it’s right on the edge of the deep blue Pacific Ocean.
It’s most memorable feature though, given the irony that you need to travel north or south to neighbouring beaches to find a great surfing break, is it’s 1990’s style brightly coloured shopping arcades.
In this image, the bright midday sun beams down from a perfect blue sky, casting shade across the bright facades of souvenir shops, wax museums, surf shops and restaurants catering for the international tourist crowd.
