Sydney | Sculpture by the Sea 2022 (9)

After a two year wait Sculpture by the Sea was given the green light to return to the shores of the Bondi to Bronte coast line. 

Technically it's Bondi to Tamara beach but lets not be picky
The information supplied is from the Sculpture by the Sea (Twenty Fourth Edition) booklet.

Artist: Ling gang Mao
Title: The Earth is Flat (2016)
Dimensions: 130 x 100 x 46cm

Title: Trap for Dreams
Dimensions: 300 x 240 x 350cm

84. Philip Spelman

Artist: Philip Spelman
Title: Out of the Red and into the Blue
Dimensions: 215 x 180 x 70cm

Statement: "This work is primarily an abstract composition. It has strong positive and negative spaces. The elements balance, tumble and float. Vibrant color and tones create strong shadows and silhouettes, separating the work from its environment."

85. Sian Watson

Artist: Sian Watson
Title: Waiting Rastor
Dimensions: 180 x 75 x 180cm

87. Benjamin Jay Shand

Artist: Benjamin Jay Shand
Title: Array 8
Dimensions: 125 x 125 x 125cm

88. Nikita Zigura

Artist: Nikita Zigura 
Title: Global Warming
Dimensions: 320 x 210 x 150cm

Statement: "At present, the world is facing global warming. The changes are more prominent in some regions than others. They glow red on the weather maps of the world like hot zones of military conflicts. The two ripe white cherries play as an allegory of this theme."

89. Barbara Licha

Artist: Barbara Licha
Title: Social Distance 2020

Title: Adaptation 22
Dimensions: 510 x 350 x 350cm

Statement: "A new way of thinking required for the world we now live in. Transitioning from conformity to the idea of new possibilities, this gridded forest becomes organic and invites flexibility of thought and different perspectives. Adaption tempts the viewer to exist in it's multi-layered presence."
