HMAS PERTH MEMORIAL 

We are a team of artists and designers who have completed over 100 Memorials, Monuments, and public artworks, working with a highly skilled and dedicated group of professionals, including engineers and multi-disciplined technical assistants, since immigrating from Ireland to Australia in 1985. From the beginning of our ‘Australian Life’, we have been particularly involved in creating Military Memorials, initially as a result of winning the Competition for the National Memorial to the Australian Army, Anzac Parade, Canberra, dedicated for the Bicentenary in 1988.

Following on from this, we produced many Military Memorial projects, including: The National Memorial to HMAS Sydney II, Geraldton; The Joondalup War Memorial; The WA Australian National Service Memorial, Perth; The WW II war-time Prime Minister, John Curtin, Memorial, Fremantle; The Onslow WA Anzac Memorial and the Swansea NSW Anzac Memorial -together forming the largest Anzac Memorial entity in Australia; The HMAS Sydney II Memorial, Denham; The HMAS Sydney I / SMS Emden WWI Memorial, Cocos Islands; The Anzac Centenary Memorial, Ocean Reef; The Hugo Throssell Anzac Memorial, Northam WA; The Monument to the Australian Sailor, Fremantle and The Shire of Upper Gascoyne WA Anzac Memorial
