Gili (Light)
Co-created by Jamie Eastwood (Ngemba/Dharug) and Balarinji Studio
The 50-metre tall Gili artwork was inspired by the Gymea Lily, a symbol of fire on Dharug Country. Gili in the Dharug language means light. Through the idea of sharing a campfire, the artwork represents unity in diversity of Western Sydney cultural groups living under one sun. Situated at the M7/M12 Interchange, at night Gili is illuminated with seasonal colours that reflect the Dharug six seasons of Western Sydney.
