Public Art
The City of Nedlands is home to a diverse collection of public artwork, located throughout the suburbs of Nedlands, Dalkeith, Mt Claremont, Swanbourne, Shenton Park, and Floreat.
The Collection
The collection formally began in 2001 led by the Nedlands Cultural and Community Society with the commission of a new work by artist Rick Vermey (Asteroid).
Between 2001 and 2010, the Nedlands Cultural and Community Society commissioned ten works. A further six works have been commissioned by the City or provided by developers, with a total of 16 works in the City’s current collection.
