Michael Foley Park
James Michael Foley (known as Michael Foley) was a Vietnam Veteran, local artist and long term resident of the Sunshine Coast. As a railway and local heritage enthusiast, Michael salvaged machinery from the Moreton Sugar Mill upon its closure in 2003 and created two large-scale prominent sculptures for the town of Nambour - Top Gear Scrap 2014 and The Mill Tribe 2015. Michael also made a large sculpture, an assemblage of salvaged machinery, entitled 'Transition Marker', which expresses the transition of the local coastal environment from wallum heath to urbanised centre. This artwork was recently installed in the Technology Drive Linear Park.
