Work on the Edithburgh Water Tower began mid March 2021 and was completed just a few weeks later.
Artists are Mike Makatron, a local to the area, Conrad Bizjak & Dylan Butler
The Edithburgh concept begins with a wide array of coral sourced from underwater photography
of the local jetty, as well as a Striped Pyjama Squid, a Cuttlefish and the magnificent Leafy Sea Dragon. Contrasting the
deep blue of the surf in the bottom section, the top of the work features a radiant sunrise backgrounding the White
Bellied Sea Eagle and the endangered Far Eastern Curlew in dynamic stages of flight as well as the Troubridge Island
lighthouse darting up from the swell. Adorned with a subtle reference to 1856 establishment at the base.
