Sculpture of a cattledog at Fairfield station. U have seen it blink when the train goes by and have heard the sounds of sheep emanating from it.

I have to check this out! How long has it been there?

Probably around 4 or 5 years. There was a petition going around by some people who thought it was stupid to have a timber sculpture out there. They thought it would be burnt down or graffitied etc. It’s still there and now there is a new sculpture in Darebin Parklands – it is a timber egg. Guess what? It’s still there.
That is so cool and I’m annoyed with myself that it took this long for me to notice! Thanks for the ‘heads up’.
Am I being snobby by saying that this is not a part of our world that I expect to find ‘big art’, or any public art for that matter.
Not snobby. If by chance you go to see the egg which is at Darebin Parklands take the dogs as there is a great off lead area. I cant get there because I have bad knees, my husband and my son take Ninna our kelpie. (Ninna named after a pretty girl my son met in Scandinavia somewhere.)
will do…….. look after those knees
Thanks.
