delivered by FORM, Land.Mark.Art enables visual artists to
evolve their two-dimensional artworks to large-scale, fabrication-
ready, three dimensional designs and models via a structured
learning process. This process is invaluable as it opens up new
pathways for Indigenous artists to access significant public art
opportunities through tenders and commissions, and the income
and reputational dividends that come with this.
Land.Mark.Art was piloted in 2009 and artist projects have
already made it through to completed public artworks, with nine
works fabricated for Pilbara sites in 2012, and 11 new artists
working through the program.
As Richard O’Connell, Head of Community and Indigenous
Affairs, BHP Billiton remarked: “Projects such as Land.Mark.
Art, in conjunction with the new Indigenous art studio, are
very valuable for regional and remote area communities as they
are geared towards achieving an important trifecta – sense of
place, industry development and celebration of Indigenous art
and culture.”
The nature of public art means that if done well, it can speak

art is beautifully designed and expertly constructed, but it also
serves to show a deeper, more finely grained insight into
the environment in which it inhabits, revealing intricacies
