“Situated in a ferny glade in the Dandenongs, William Ricketts Sanctuary is a place of beauty and tranquillity,” says Parkweb. Ricketts is known for his belief that all humans should be stewards of the land, just as the Aborigines he spent time with were, explains Atlas Obscura. “The goal of his life-long project was to provide a relaxing setting where one could reflect on man’s, oft forgotten, connection to nature. Nestled in a glade covered in fern and mountain ash trees, William Ricketts’ masterpiece feels alive. Some covered in moss, the 92 ceramic sculptures in the park all blend seamlessly into their natural surroundings.”
