The Sydney Lunar Festival light rail gallops its way around the city centre. Tap on and off to go for a ride.
Jason Wing’s artwork celebrates the Year of the Fire Horse.
This rare combination of fire and horse amplifies vitality, enthusiasm and a desire for change. Key characteristics include intensity, passion and transformation. This year focuses on freedom, independence, bold decisions, breaking limitations, self-expression and rapid change.
The colour scheme represents symbolic colours of both Aboriginal and Chinese people, with the horses created from fire embers.
It’s time for us all to sit in the fire as individuals and collectively charge through the fire as a stampeding global community. The regenerative qualities of fire inspire a push for personal growth, new adventures and redefining ourselves from things and thoughts that no longer serve us.
