Poppies in Motion

29/03/2025

Real-time art installation honours ANZAC Day.

Look up next time you're crossing the Level 1 Lobby – our latest digital installation is transforming Heritage Lanes' ceiling into a mesmerising field of poppies. Created by artist Ben Gartland, this responsive artwork changes throughout the day and reacts in real-time to Brisbane's actual wind patterns.

This immersive ANZAC tribute evolves constantly, creating a living memorial that brings quiet moments of reflection to our busy precinct. The installation is particularly striking during sunset hours, when the lighting transitions to deeper, more dramatic tones.

The Essentials:

When: Throughout April until mid-May
Where: Level 1 Lobby
Cost: Free

Take a moment during your busy day to pause beneath this contemplative installation – it's a stunning example of how Heritage Lanes blends tradition with innovation.
