Description

Roadside Marker - sculpture by Velislav Georgiev (born in Bulgaria)

"When the wind of change blows, raise your sail and ride the waves in the sea of time".

This marker is the song of the bay written in industrial steel. It is a melody standing still. It welcomes arrivals and bids farewell to those who seek to navigate Frankston.

The sculpture stands 5.1m tall and is made from Mild Steel, 318 Stainless Steel.
