As a winner for the 2021 Biannual Footscray Art Prize (mural category), this artwork for the Footscray Community Arts Centre, spatial deconstruction #25 (perceptual vortex), attempts to create a perceptual ‘window’ through the interaction and structured arrangement of colour on the building’s facade.

Conceptually, Coulter wanted to create a metaphorical ‘window’ into the space between the wider community and the arts centre. Through‘ ‘spatial deconstruction #25 (perceptual vortex)’, a theoretical link is created between the two spaces.

Perceptually the work forms a geometric vortex or window from the outside to the inside, whilst simultaneously also opening out from within.
