What to expect
The Dreamtime Story of the gum tree greets people as they arrive at Campbelltown Railway Station. The 2012 public artwork ‘The Standout’ by Dhungatti Australian Archibald Prize winner Blak Douglas, has been revitalised. Consisting of 83 panels installed across 235 metres of bus shelters at Campbelltown City Railway Station ‘The Standout’ pays homage to the Dharawal Dreamtime Story of the ‘Seven Eucalypts’. The artwork features Douglas’ previous photographic series of deceased gums standing alone within landscapes and casting shadows within urban facades. Originally commissioned by Campbelltown City Council in 2012, with special thanks to Transport for NSW.
