In 2016, high profile artist Ian Bracegirdle was commissioned to work in partnership with the Clayton South community to create a site specific artwork that would celebrate the local area and its people.
While the plant-like form references the historic market gardens that once thrived in the area, it also reflects the growth of the contemporary community, the waves of migration to the region, as well as the language and culture of past and current generations.
The outer glazing (or skin) of the sculpture features drawings, icons and words gathered through community consultation and workshops. The coming together of community is further reflected in the title of the sculpture, Unukomuno, which means one community.
