Confluence

Haven't heard the word. Well confluence is mainly defined as the coming together of 2 bodies of water, and more generally " flowing or running together; junction" and this may be the reason Brisbane artist Daniel Templeman named his 65m long concrete and plate aluminium artwork "Confluence" which dominates the entrance to the Brisbane Magistrates Court, where social recalcitrants "come together" with the legal fraternity.

He has described it as representative of a "notion associated with the judicial experience; that life presents obstacles which are either seen as overwhelming or resolvable. The work begins with a sense of calm, building up intensity towards the 'obstacle' before penetrating it and returning to the 'resolved' state." or in laymans terms "The rolling wave of metal bursting through the so called obstacle before reaching its resolution"

How about that. You learn something everyday. It looks fabulous Big On Black, if I might say so myself
