Melbourne Grammar School

After the iconic Monument Park project, Callum Morton was commissioned as the first in a series of artists to create a work for Melbourne Grammar School’s new sculpture walk. Positioned on the lawn outside the Headmaster’s office, the sculpture – a reimagining of Peter Corlett’s well-known war memorial Cobbers, forms not only an inspired piece of furniture for students to occupy, but also an example of GRC’s boundless possibilities.

After using 3D technology to scan the Cobbers memorial, Callum Morton and his team from Monash Art Projects created a virtual sheet to ‘cover’ the piece and give the illusion of an imminent unveiling. Once again, it was then time for GRC Environment’s KUKA robotic arm to come into play. We carved a GRFC shell around a polystyrene core and with the world-first technology, were able to bring the school’s striking new feature to life.

Our principals have worked in the building industry since 1995 and are leaders in GRC/GFRC use in Australia. Meet the crew

Thanks to our partner, Monash Art Projects, for their help in this project.
