Shimmering stage sparkling winter playhouse at STC

Visitors of Sydney Theatre Company’s iconic home on the Wharf will be greeted with Shimmering stage sparkling winter playhouse by Victoria Atkinson.

Inspired by the gorgeous locale and its dazzling performances, see Victoria’s seven vibrant chiffon banners cascading from the heritage beams of STC’s walkway entry. The banners feature unique designs from Victoria, with the each work flowing on to the next in the series.

“My artwork is a shimmering stage with flashing lights and stars sparkling in the sky. I remember it from my visit, and I remember it from my dream: an archway with clouds and rainbows inside and a boombox. It gave me energy. It made me feel happy” - Victoria Atkinson
