i2C collaborated with local Quandamooka woman Delvene Cockatoo-Collins and turned her traditional artwork into fabrics, wallpaper an ceiling features throughout the centre
Working in collaboration with local artist and Quandamooka woman Delvene Cockatoo Collins we developed her artwork to create experiential graphics for use throughout the mall from wallpaper, ceiling features and furniture upholstery.
The Quandamooka People are the Traditional Owners of much of Redland City, where the centre is located, so collaborating with Delvene ensured we represented her artwork respectfully to celebrate the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures.
The bringing together of the design intent from the Interior team, along with retaining the intentions of Delvene’s art, ensured the environmental graphics truly integrate seamlessly, provide a beautiful experience for visitors.
The circular seating areas provide privacy and a resting place, which Delvene said translates to ‘You are welcome, you are invited, you can sit down and rest.’
“It’s a feeling of gentleness throughout the shopping centre, it hugs you as you walk through. The team at i2C interpreted my work better than I could have imagined, my art has been protected and my work has been valued in that space – I always love working in a great team.” – Delvene
