Around 50 kilograms of pure gold from our Mt Rawdon Operations was exclusively provided for Australian contemporary artist Lindy Lee’s unique art sculpture, Abundance, signifying birth, death, regeneration and transcendence. Commissioned as part of the Pallion Arts Program, Abundance is a pure gold companion to Lindy Lee’s most significant public art project to date – Ouroboros. This sculpture, which resides in the National Gallery of Australia’s sculpture garden, is made from 13 tonnes of mirrored stainless steel and represents the traditional and eternal image of a snake eating its own tail.
The Mt Rawdon Operation is close to Lindy Lee’s birthplace in Queensland and on the traditional lands of the Bailai, Gurang, Gooreng Gooreng, and Taribelang Bunda peoples. This sculpture provides a perfect vehicle for storytelling for Lindy Lee and the National Gallery of Australia, reflects her sustainable design ethos by using ethical pure Australian gold, and brings visibility to one of Australia’s most important industries.
