Public art at Warwick Farm
Adorned on the exterior of the multi-storey commuter car park is Tesserae Wall created by artist Abdullah M.I. Syed. The artwork tells the story of Warwick Farm’s diverse community and its rich history of motor and horse racing.
Constructed from 150 colourful number-plate style aluminum plates, the undulating, geometric form is punctuated by light reflectors. Reminiscent of a modern racetrack, a car park grid, and traffic and railway signs, the sculptural installation responds directly to the context of the site, forging a strong understanding of place and identity.
Syed identifies the train station and car park as transient spaces that momentarily bring a diverse group of people together, before they move in their different directions. Tesserae Wall, with its assorted, interlocking elements, aims to represent this cultural mosaic that is united by the richness and strength of the community. Showcasing words of affirmation such as ‘welcome’, ‘warmth’ and ‘wonder’, the work brings dynamism, optimism and joy to the area, as the artist strives to harness and build upon the collective sense of pride in Warwick Farm.

Project history
In October 2020 the community was invited to provide feedback on the Review of Environmental Factors for the additional commuter parking at Warwick Farm Station.
Thank you to everyone who made a submission. Your feedback helps us to understand what is important to customers and the community and will be considered during the detailed design phase of the project.
All submissions received during the public display period were considered as part of the planning approval process and are addressed in the Determination Report.
