‘Tree Spirits’, 2015 is located in the charming Russell Lane. By day, this quaint laneway is animated by three suspended Perspex figures. By night the Tree Spirit figures come alive, illuminating the lane with an otherwordly glow of light, inviting visitors to explore the work en route to and from Lilac City Cinema. The half-human, half-spirit figures represent our past, present and future ancestors. The figures are inspired by Aboriginal and Chinese heritage but do not preclude other cultures. The colourful 'spirit' mural pattern was painted on one of the laneway wall surfaces by Goulburn youth in workshops with Jason in January 2015.

The artworks are internally illuminated acrylic figures, cable suspended  complimented by enamel mural painted on the rendered brick wall.
