The Big Rubiks Cube

The Big Rubiks Cube in Maroubra, Australia, is an outsized sculpture embodying the playful essence of this beachside suburb in Sydney. Unlike its toy counterpart, this cube is fixed and does not rotate, but its colorful pattern makes for vibrant photographs, especially at sunrise or sunset when the light adds depth to its colors. Situated at the Maroubra Beach Skate Park, it serves as a striking backdrop for skateboarding and surfing photos, blending urban and beach atmospheres. The sculpture’s location offers a less crowded alternative for photographers seeking to capture Sydney's coastal beauty, avoiding the more frequented spots. Its proximity to the beach allows for a varied photo session, from the geometric allure of the cube to the natural curves of the sea and sand, all within walking distance. The area's lighting can dramatically change the cube's appearance, making it a versatile subject for different photography styles and times of day.
