On a winter’s evening, the guest editor of T Australia’s “Structure” issue, Viola Raikhel; renowned Australian contemporary artist Lindy Lee; City of Sydney architect and design director Bridget Smyth; and UAP founders Daniel and Matthew Tobin gathered for a panel discussion. They explored some of the world’s most iconic public art exhibitions, including Lee’s impressive “Ouroboros,” a 13-tonne sculpture crafted at Urban Art Projects (UAP) in Brisbane.

Hosted in collaboration with Woodford Reserve and offering stunning views of Sydney Harbour, the event was part of the latest T Suite titled “Let’s Talk Art, Publicly.”

In celebration of the issue, special guests, along with T subscribers and friends, enjoyed award-winning bourbon cocktails crafted by mixologists from the world-renowned bar Maybe Sammy. Check out the behind-the-scenes moments from this memorable evening below.
