HOTEL, Highway sculpture in Victoria, Australia.

The EastLink Hotel sculpture rises 20 meters high along the freeway, displaying a minimalist steel frame with concrete and glass panels in a hotel shape.

Constructed in 2007 with a budget of 1.2 million Australian dollars, the sculpture represents the evolving relationship between public art and transportation infrastructure.

The American band Violent Femmes selected this structure for their album Hotel Last Resort cover, connecting Australian public art with international music.

Visitors can observe the sculpture while driving northbound on EastLink between Greens Road and Bangholme Road without stopping at the location.

The structure appears as a standard hotel building but stands isolated in an open field without entrances, creating an unexpected visual disruption in the landscape.
