The Lost Dogs’ Disco
Calling all dog lovers! This winter a pack of dogs are moving into the Bunjil Place Plaza to have some fun.
The Lost Dogs’ Disco is a temporary sculpture that celebrates the place of dogs in our lives.
Visitors journey through an immersive installation of 16 dogs, some up to 5.5m tall, all in various states of repose – curled-up, standing, even touching noses.
There are four distinct characters, inspired by three dog breeds: Poodles, Bull Terriers and Dachshunds.
As visitors journey through the happy pack, the dogs’ coats light up and they greet passersby with happy grunts to celebrate each new person’s arrival.
The Lost Dogs’ Disco is a hallowed place for dogs and every newcomer to the disco is greeted as a fellow disco dog.
The installation features a custom sound design of electronic music that captures the beauty and pathos of a dog’s life including a chorus of barks, growls, howls and all kinds of doggie hullabaloo.
FREE and family friendly.
Bunjil Place, 2 Patrick Northeast Drive, Warren from Saturday 24 June – Sunday 16 July, 10am-10pm.
