Northern Beaches NSW is a contemporary Northern Beaches map art piece that transforms topographic data into a sculptural environmental narrative. Laser-cut from layered MDF sheets, the stepped contours reveal the region’s ridges, valleys and coastline, while green layers denote core habitats and intact vegetation.

A fine line marking the Northern Beaches Local Government Area boundary sits above the relief, grounding the work within its administrative and ecological context. The ocean is rendered in reflective resin that slightly overlaps the coastline, symbolising sea-level rise and the shifting boundary between land and water.

Blending cartography, materiality and environmental design, the artwork invites reflection on landscape change, coastal vulnerability and the interdependence of earth, water and living systems.
