The central concept around the artwork is how to engage public awareness of the polluted estuary especially after so many years where seemingly nothing has been achieved, in such a way that its long term viability is possible. Finding that solution isn`t a short term project but is a long term strategy which needs to balance the requirements of the community to that of the environment. Clearly that strategy is failing as no one is taking any notice and the waterway is still polluted. www.chanandreassend.co.nz/1/post/2012/03/uxbridge-estuary-art-competition-2012.html
