Concrete Collage

The pathways, and pavements, around Cotton Tree will be transformed into a free and interactive art trail.

Experience Jack MacRae’s artworks come to life with the animations of Helena Papageorgiou and the support of augmented reality.

Concrete Collage draws on the creative output of Jack MacRae who has worked in collaboration with experienced animator Helena Papageorgiou to transform selected works into an interactive motion experience, supported by the Eye Jack app.
