As Federation Square celebrates its 10th birthday, here’s something quite different you’ll find if you pay a visit. 

This exhibition is all about amazing things built with sticks.  Thanks to Magic 1278 listener Darren Stewart for sending these photos to Kevin and Jane.

"I think that a good sculpture is one that evokes in the viewer a wealth of personal associations. 

My viewers see stick castles, lairs, architectural follies; and they remember moments in the woods building forts and hideouts.  I hear stories about the Garden of Eden, favourite trees, and secrets about first dates. 

Some viewers touch the surfaces and see the momentum of wind or other forces in the natural world.  Most important, people love to explore strange shapes and hidden spaces, particularly if they encounter them in unlikely spots. 

I like to see children running toward the opening and people standing on the street and pointing.  I like to spark people's imaginations and connect them with nature in a surprising way."
