Moving Mountains is a new large-scale sculptural work by Hari Koutlakis. Over two weekends in October as part of the 2024 Nature Festival, the public were invited to witness the out of the ordinary transformation of suburban playgrounds into dynamic sculptural spaces of awe and wonder.

The project consists of 100 large painted canvases, sewn together and draped over two suburban playgrounds in the City of Port Adelaide Enfield. The adaptable design allows for the work to be shown across multiple locations.
