Melville Sculpture Walk

creating taking place

I have been collaborating with the lovely Peta to create a 3-piece sculpture for the Melville Sculpture Walk - it launches next week! It has been a totally inspiring journey, spending time together with a like-minded artist -  creating, talking, dreaming, questioning, conspiring, laughing, and just having fun! And yes, tea and cake have been involved! 

I have lots of process pics to share! I will post more about our concept with the final, installed pieces, but we are creating 3 cocoon-like sculptures which represent "think", "listen", and "lean". 

Here is "learn" - we both love the playfulness and bright colours of this piece.










This one is "think', and is more delicate than the others.




Here is "listen" which uses neutral tones and will have hanging shells inside - put one up to your ear . . . . 





We have a 3 year old apprentice who created this piece! We all got stickers for our good work.
