Sentinels contemplate the seemingly disparate systems of our urban landscape and the ever-contracting natural environment, allowing for a re-examination of our relationships to nature and perhaps suggest a new kind of hybrid nature in this increasingly industrialised, disposable world. Working predominantly with recycled industrial materials, the installation plays with the idea of juxtaposition by taking an artificial, manufactured ‘body part’ and reconsiders the notions of our health and lifestyle by reinserting it into the natural landscape of Currumbin Beach.
