The Swell Sculpture Festival on Currumbin Beach has seen the installation of a new kind of border barricade.

Artists, Blair Garland and Russell Solomon, are responsible for installing an ‘us and them’ sign at the site of the border barricade.

The sign next to the barricade on the beach dividing the two sides has been described as a ‘Soviet brutalism feature’, and locals have been venting out their frustrations by writing on blackboards with chalk at the site.
