05.01.2022 Tasmanian artists are contributing to a new public art project on Launceston's streets, inspired by the late Australian botanical illustrator Margaret Stones. A group of local artists were invited to study the extensive collection of Stones' work held at the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery, and to use their interpretations of her work to decorate traffic control boxes across Launceston. Each interpretation is unique, with results varying from realistic works through to ...colourful abstractions. As part of stage one of the project earlier this year, 20 boxes were painted at a warehouse and later installed along Wellington, Margaret and Bathurst streets. Stage two is now underway with some boxes being decorated in situ by artists, while others are wrapped in prefabricated artworks designed by local high school students. Dubbed 'Electric Botany', the trail of boxes will ultimately stretch from the CBD to Mowbray, along Invermay Road and as far as the West Tamar Highway and Prospect. Follow the Electric Botany trail using the map available in printed form from the Launceston Visitor Information Centre and online at www.qvmag.tas.gov.au/ElectricBotany.
