SWELL at Oasis Shopping Centre 2026 | 1 - 30 SEP
Forest Dwellers by Monte Lupo 🌲🌷

Forest Dwellers is an immersive installation combining sculpture, painted timber and integrated seating to create a visually striking and emotionally engaging feature within the Oasis Shopping Centre.

Inspired by the quiet beauty and organic forms of the forest, the artwork introduces a sense of nature, curiosity and calm into the bustling retail environment. Through thoughtful spatial design and playful sculptural elements, Forest Dwellers encourages visitors to pause, observe and engage with the work at their own pace.

The installation is designed not only as an artwork, but as a welcoming place to sit, reflect and connect—creating a moment of creativity and discovery within the everyday shopping experience.
