The annual outdoor display of sculptures is on again in Sydney. With artworks dotted for 2km along the coast from Tamarama Beach to Bondi Beach, this free two-week event is hugely popular.
There are over 100 artworks on display — but don’t worry, I didn’t photograph every one. 😉
A few sculptures that caught my eye
ashes to ashes – Kim Perrier
bath – Vince Vozzo
bjf13 – Ben Fasham
city dreams – Gao Xiaowu
fun! – Naidee Changmoh
intervention – Mike Van Dam
kakashi – Zilvinas Zempinas
man on ball – Wang Shugang
listen time passes – Barbara Licha
tree spirit eggs – Mark Eliott
undulation – Benjamin Storch
quotidianity the brothers – Fabio Pietrantonio
These “sculptures” were created by Mother Nature — eroded sandstone.
A few other things that caught my eye
I deliberately took a day off work so I could avoid the crazy crowds on a weekend, but look at all the people on the path! I’ve put this post in my Strolls around Sydney category because, believe me, a strolling pace is as fast as it’s possible to move.
It’s important to stay hydrated and safe in the Sydney sun (when the sun actually shines, that is — it’s been very wet here for the past few days!). There was free water …
… and free sunscreen.
And someone has to keep the artworks looking clean!

Keeping it clean.
Ah, some lovely sculptures there again. A year ago that I arrived in your gorgeous Sydney.but didn’t make the exhibition. I like the work by Wang Shugang I found one of his in Vancouver some years ago. https://smallbluegreenwords.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/meeting.jpg
I don’t like those boys, too spooky 😦

Interesting — those men seem to be his “thing”. There six or so men on balls in this exhibit. The boys are indeed spooky! I kept expecting them to blink. Sydney is not so gorgeous at the moment, the weather is dismal — but there would be no crowds for the sculptures today! 😉

Ive been trying to do a dawn shoot all week down there but it is just too wet and windy for me. Tomorrow is forecast clear, so hopefully I can get down there in the morning. Great photos from you. I particulary like faces as I am an artist and can sketch them too.

Thanks for showing me works from this great outdoor exhibition – AND for “exporting” Sculpture By The Sea” over here to Århus. You can see some of my posts from earlier exhibitions here: https://truels.wordpress.com/category/art-2/page/2/. But I haven’t posted some of my photos from this years Sculpture By The Sea in Århus – yet 🙂

You’re so welcome, I’m glad you like them. And I’ll check out your photos, too. I’m curious to see what sort of sea backdrop/coast you have in your area.
