Art Trail

Until 7th April 2021, the cities of Melbourne and Geelong were taken over by Me and UooUoo. One hundred UooUoo sculptures, all uniquely designed by Australia’s most talented artists, formed walking trails of discovery and adventure for all to enjoy.

Me and UooUoo brought communities back together to rediscover the adventure of our cities, while celebrating and raising funds for The Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH) Melbourne.

After entertaining children, adults and families alike, the legacy of Me and UooUoo has continued as each sculpture was sold and auctioned to raise funds for the RCH Foundation.

Thank you to those who pre-purchased or bid for a UooUoo during the art trail auction. Your commitment to providing UooUoo with a forever home supports the life-changing work at The Royal Children’s Hospital.

What is UooUoo?

UooUoo (pronounced you-you) has been created by award-winning Melbourne artist Alexander Knox, who also created the iconic sculpture ‘Creature’ that stands in the main foyer of the RCH.

UooUoo is an imaginary Australian creature whose shape is loosely drawn from the wombat and dugong. A mysterious being, UooUoo is highly empathetic, playful and brave, but can be mischievous at times.

Where can you find UooUoo?

One hundred UooUoos will be dotted throughout laneways, streets, parks, beaches and public spaces across Melbourne and Geelong.
