Dedication of water feature

1 JANUARY 2003

The most significant sculpture or art work commissioned by Charles Sturt University (CSU) will be dedicated at a special 20th anniversary event at the Bathurst Campus on Saturday 18 April. Intended as a lasting memorial to the students and staff of Bathurst Teachers College (BTC), the Bathurst Teachers College Commemorative Water Feature is now a focal point within the Bathurst Alumni Common. In 2005, Dr Peter Wilson, ceramic artist and sculptor, alumnus of Mitchell College of Advanced Education and senior lecturer in creative arts at the CSU School of Teacher Education, was commissioned to design and create the feature. “The concept I developed is loosely based on the spiralled nautilus shell, where the fins all emanate from a central point, spiralling outwards. This represents the paths our students take but forever stay connected by their shared experiences and commitment to the creation of new knowledge for the next generation,” Dr Wilson said.
