For the 2024 Sydney New Year’s Eve celebrations, the Calling Country Ceremony opened the night with powerful projections on the Harbour Bridge pylons. Created by First Nations artists Kimberly Engwicht (Bundjalung & South Sea Islander) and Oumoula McKenzie (Anangu), the visuals honoured Barangaroo’s role as matriarch and provider, symbolising regeneration and strength. VANDAL brought the artwork to life through 2D animation of the existing artists’ work and expert projection mapping, creating a moving tribute that captivated audiences.
