Concept — Ghost Range:
This proposal draws from archival photographs captured at Werribee Open Range Zoo, reinterpreted through layered visual processes to create a sequence of atmospheric nature compositions.
Forms suggesting movement, vegetation and distant presence emerge and dissolve within textured surfaces. The imagery remains intentionally ambiguous, allowing the work to reference the open plains and spatial character of Werribee without literal depiction.
Across eight panels, the artwork unfolds as a continuous visual environment, guiding movement through the underpass while creating a calm and immersive experience. Subtle tonal shifts and layered detail provide visual interest at both distance and close viewing.
The final artwork will be developed specifically for digital reproduction, forming a cohesive place-responsive installation connected to Werribee’s landscape and identity.
Artist Bio:
LLP Concepts is the public art and large-format surface practice of Melbourne-based multidisciplinary artist Liam Lynch, building on an established body of work developed through Liam Lynch Photography. Working across photography, painting and public art, Lynch explores landscape, atmosphere and memory through layered visual processes that shift between abstraction and representation. Drawing from photographic archives and site-responsive research, he creates immersive compositions that suggest place rather than describe it directly. His work is particularly suited to public environments, where imagery functions as both visual landmark and an open, interpretive experience connected to local context.
