Amanda was engaged by Landcom to curate public artworks for Landcom's Northwest Places, an enormous area surrounding the new Sydney Metro Northwest stations spanning over twenty five kilometers.

Repise by Ian Mutch is a two hundred meter long artwork either side of Bella Vista station as part of the second iteration of the Sydney Metro Northwest Public art program. It playfully depicts everyday moment of life, in his words the “memories, friends, relationships, food, music, creativity, work, leisure, ornaments, toys, plants, places and more”.

For Amanda’s second iteration of the program, seven artists were engaged to create large scale art commissions, each between one hundred and three hundred meters long surrounding the Metro stations designed by Hassell. Maddison Gibbs, Nadia Hernandez, Bradley Eastman aka Beastman, Tina Barahanos, Alexandra Byrne, Leanne Watson and Ian Mutch were selected from a long list of international and Australian artists. Their art responds to a brief asking them to create memorable, distinct, powerful, contemporary and bold artworks that activate and announce Northwest Places.
