Drive into Frederickton from the Pacific Highway to view one of the most spectacular sculptures on the Mid North Coast. Titled Confluence, the abstract artwork depicts the convergence of the majestic Macleay River as it meanders through tributaries, gorges and waterfalls, meeting the saltwater of the South Pacific Ocean near South West Rocks.

The shell formwork represents Indigenous middens in the Clybucca, symbolising the continuation of Dunghutti culture, while the upright poles reference fragments of Frederickton’s’ shipping and timber industries.
