Artist: Sharyn Egan  

Materials: Balga plant resin 

Sharyn Egan’s Liquid Fire brings warmth and vibrancy to Yagan Square. Made from Balga plant resin—a material Noongar people have used for millennia—this illuminated artwork reflects both cultural tradition and artistic innovation.

Egan’s creative process is deeply intuitive, allowing the resin to guide the work’s evolution. Through years of experimentation, she has uncovered new ways to shape and express this ancient medium, using it to embody the enduring presence of Noongar culture and connection to Country.
