Construct: celebrating Queensland sculpture

A few years ago I visited and recorded this inspiring exhibition at the Caboolture Regional Art Gallery in South East Queensland ( Australia ) - but never got around to blogging the show - so five years later here it is ... enjoy ...

Con|struct: Celebrating Queensland Sculpture
This exhibition explores the extraordinarily diverse field of sculpture and features eleven artists that represent the scope and depth of contemporary sculpture across the state who have a sustained practice working in the sculptural realm. 

 

The Caboolture Hub is a thriving community meeting place in the heart of the Caboolture CBD. This modern, award winning facility is comprised of the Learning and Business Centre, Caboolture Library and Caboolture Regional Art Gallery, each offering an exciting and rewarding experience for locals and visitors alike.

 

Construct: Celebrating Queensland Sculpture explores the extraordinarily diverse field of sculpture. It features the work of artists that represent the scope and depth of contemporary sculpture in South East Queensland ( Australia ).  Artists Lincoln Austin, James and Eleanor Avery, Laurindo de Abreu, Simone Eisler, Jason Fitzgerald, Stephen Hart, Hew Chee Fong, Stephen Newton, Charles Robb and Daniel Templeman have collectively worked in the sculptural realm for a number of decades.

... somewhere along the way I have lost the details of each piece I photographed - my sincerest apologies to the artists and to the Gallery ...

The selected group of sculptors has disparate conceptual concerns and use a variety of materials in their works. What links each practice is a dedication to working in a three-dimensional space and the exploration of process with the underpinning of construction and form-making.
