Sculpture by the Sea 2017 - Impressions over time

Janine McAullay Bott, Great Southern Noongar

Sculpture by the Sea 2017 continues to be a crowd pleaser with large numbers of people from the general public, school groups, special needs groups and overseas tourists, all converging on the walk from Tamarama Beach to Bondi. This year 100 sculptures from 16 different countries including various European nations, the United States, South East Asia and Australia form the core of the exhibition. There were almost 500 submissions from 31 countries vying for inclusion in the line-up so there was a depth of choice available for the panel of judges. 2017 also marks the 21st year of the promotion of this art form and the event continues to measurably grow from strength to strength. Particularly stunning large scale works are located in Marks Park on the headland which also has the pavilion with the marquettes (or miniatures) of all the larger sculptures. All sculptures are for sale however be prepared for some cost for even the marquette's range in price from $3,000 to $40,000.

Sculpture by the Sea runs  from 19 October – 5 November 2017.
