“They Loved Riding Together in Paris is modelled off The Tandem Riders, a life-sized sculpture in Perth. (Australia) The artists won a tender to cement the sculpture right onto the road itself, among the cars as a way to address the city’s environmental concerns while representing diversity, companionship and alliance.” Gillie and Marc
