Harwood Bridge Sentinels Artwork

As you leave the Pacific Highway and venture towards Yamba, you will be welcomed by four river sentinels adorning the Harwood Bridge pylons. Inspired by the 2022 floods, artist Al Stark has chosen these sentinels to stand as guardians over the mighty Clarence River. Showcasing how public art can represent history, reinforce connections, and weave tales for every passer-by. This flood-inspired masterpiece is an example of how locals transform challenges into character.
