Rationale
RIPPLES
Ripples is about the growth of a community, the waves of settlement to Camden and the expanding urban development that is changing the pattern of the land, in particular around Oran Park.
Ripples comprises of three layers, the Flora, the Fauna and the Waterways of the bisecting Nepean River. Utilising these elements, Ripples combines these layers to form a graphic treatment showing a rippling wave of biodiversity and movement.
The overall image is an imprint contour of the Camden valley while graphics of the flora and fauna engage discovery at a closer distance.
Ripples draws on the history of Camden and its growth, since the early days of settlement in Australia, the Camden District was the first destination for hundreds of pioneering families starting a new life
