Here we go! I usually show the sculptures in the order that we see them as we step onto the beach, this time starting from the last piece at the end of the groyne. Above, 'Entwined' a sculpture in stainless steel and bronze created by Victorian sculptor Ben Fasham. The artist's statement 'Inspired by the family group, I see the two curved elements encompassing and nurturing the central ball reflecting the relationship between the parents and the child. Showing the family entwined together'. I love both the sculpture and what it represents 💙
Above.. 'Cairn' created in steel, coloured and mirrored perspex by Italian/WA sculptor Alessandra Rossi. The artist's statement 'The abstraction and simplification of form contains the light and colours of the landscape in which it is placed, exposing the hidden and the imaginary in a balancing act between fragility and impermanence'. Must get back in the evening to take this as the sun is going down..
I can never resist a lighthouse! 'The Vague but Slightly Illuminated Eye of Perception'.. brilliant title, created in hebel, steel, bronze,solar light by NSW artist Stephen Harrison. The artist's statement 'Broken and dying the lamentable lighthouse, silent sentinels of the world. For my Uncle Ian'. If like moi you didn't know.. this is hebel..
Below the curves of 'Time and Motion' created in copper, corten steel by WA sculptor Ron Gomboc. The artist's statement 'Like every journey, time and motion each have beginnings. Our existence revolves around the anxiety and uncertainty of expectations and the unknown'. So many more to edit come.. happy Wednesday, take care and stay safe..
Time and Motion is my favourite!
ReplyDelete...I always look forward to seeing your Sculpture by the Sea. What a fabulous idea.
ReplyDeleteI respect and appreciate the art you show us!
ReplyDeleteIt is always with great pleasure that I find your reports on the artistic event Sculpture by the sea. There is nothing more beautiful than an open-air museum. Once again, beautiful pieces are presented there. I particularly like the first and last pictures. For my part in Paris, I saw this afternoon an exhibition of Japanese oustiders artists near Montmartre
ReplyDeleteI especially like that first one, Grace! I didn't know that was heel but have seen it on a few projects here.
ReplyDeleteSuch beauty in all those sculptures. So nice to see, Grace.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
They are all lovely Grace. I would have to say the lighthouse is my favorite though because it reminds me of my Dad. He always loved them.
ReplyDeleteAll quite different, but my favourite is the first one. Hope all is well Diane
ReplyDeleteI vote for Entwined. They are all nice.
ReplyDeleteEntwined does it for me. I like the title for the lighthouse too.
ReplyDeleteSo far "Entwined" is my favorite and I love how you shot it. It's me, I know, but I sometimes find artist's statements a little, uhm, pretentious.
ReplyDeleteEvery piece has its own beauty. Together they are spectacular.
ReplyDeleteTruly Awesome. Fist one my favorite.
ReplyDeleteLovely sculptures! I really like the first one.
ReplyDeleteOh, Grace! Especially the first one is now so much more beautiful! I love the statement. On the other hand... I liked it before, too (still big thanks to P for I can read it whenever I want and in peace ;-)...)
ReplyDeleteAnd, gosh! I should know about hebel, I studied that stuff and I did not know! That uni was a fail (which does not matter as I went into IT anyways, but still!).
Very nice choice of statues. Kudos for the people that decide what to see and made it possible. Also the location is great.
ReplyDeleteLove to see this Grace, my favourite is the first one!
ReplyDeleteGostei bastante da primeira escultura e aproveito para desejar a continuação de uma boa semana.

Entwined is my favourite!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful set of sculptures but, I have to admit the first one took my breath away. It is simply stunning.
ReplyDelete'Entwined' gets top marks from me :)
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Oh me too, the more lighthouses the better!
