Leaf Skeleton Dome Sculpture Galvin Park

A sculptural climbing frame with a difference

Created for CivelEx Vic, the Lump Leaf Skeleton Dome was reduced slightly in scale to feature in a children’s play area.

A fallen leaf is many things. Folded and floating in a puddle it is a boat on a vast ocean following a new adventure. Propped up with twigs it’s a shelter and meeting place for fairies, bugs and imagined creatures. Imagining worlds and societies like our own that live just beneath our noses is something as children we believe we are part of. As adults we need to remember we ARE part of a world of many creatures that live together in the world we create.

The Leaf Skeleton dome represents a meeting place for our community. A safe and imaginative place for children and a meeting place for a solid, intertwined and supportive community.”
