Signs of Life is a public artwork using Council street signs. Poets were invited to submit short works for the project. Some of the poems chosen are more generally philosophical, some are site-specific, relating directly to Bowen Street environment with its connection to the bus station, community housing, backpacker hostels and the adjacent Adelaide Central Market.

The work was designed to be accessible, being tactile for the sight impaired and accessible by wheelchair. Reaching 4 metres to the highest point, it has been constructed of concrete, Mintaro slate and steel with a hot dipped zinc finish. Inlaid into the slate surface are figures formed by the use of locally found shards of pottery from early Adelaide homes and Bennett’s Potters terracotta rubble. Linda also worked with the children from Brompton Primary and their drawings can be seen incised around the base of the sculpture.

Journey - consists of two elements, both 3.5 metres high on each side of the bike path, made from bronze and stainless steel. The work represents the paths of life, and of time, leading to and from, forming a passage way. The viewer is held on one side of the path, grounded. The materials, physical, spiritual and emotional goals that we strive for are on the other side, the 'ladder of success'. The work invites us to rise above obstacles so that we can 'fly' to the other side to reach our goals. The work along the path represents moving through our dreams, hopes and aspirations.
