‘Synergy’, designed and fabricated by metal artist Kane Minogue, is inspired by life on Lake Illawarra for the Wadi Wadi people, the original inhabitants and traditional custodians of the lake and surrounding areas. 
It is also representative of Lake Illawarra still today, with the focus of the lake now recreational rather than based on survival. 

The artwork uses a ring of 4 m high seaweed intertwined with marine life specific to Lake Illawarra all swimming in an upward circular direction. This design element represents the circle of life within the lake, Synergy and a sense of community.
