Congratulations to Pippin Drysdale and Simon Fieldhouse who have been announced as finalists in the 2022 Woollahra Small Sculpture Prize, held at Woollahra Gallery at Redleaf from 13 October to 20 November 2022.
Drysdale has submitted a series of porcelain sculptures titled Breakaway Series III – Knox Gorge Meridian Group, which: “interpret the topography and colours of the banded iron formations of Karijini that date back to the archaic epoch of our planet. Drysdale’s response to this ancient and compelling landscape is captured on the interiors and exteriors of this collection: marbles with finely incised and coloured lines, vessels with interiors of intense colour that are hypnotic and breathtaking, perfectly describing mood, time, and memory.”
Drysdale has said of these works, and of her practice: “I am inspired by Aboriginal connections to land, this land that took my breath away over forty years ago on a study tour to Central Australia. Since then, I have been on a mission to share my feelings about the beauty of these places and the importance of preserving the ancient cultural traditions of the people that have cared for them for so long, through my ceramic work.”
Simon Fieldhouse Roman Tourists 2022 porcelene 35 x 35 x 35 cm. Enquire about this work.
Simon Fieldhouse presents a whimsical and humorous sculpture, Roman Tourists, which re-imagines Imperial Roman soldiers as lost and confused tourists. Fieldhouse, who typically creates paintings from watercolour and pen, models these figures from porcelene, a synthetic resin used by dentists.
