HarbourSculpture HarbourSculpture will showcase a selection of indoor contemporary Australian sculpture right in the heart of Balmain.

The next exhibition will be from 20 until 29 November 2020 to be held at the historic Balmain Rowing Club. With the harbour and the Bridge as a back drop, this event will display and sell works by prominent and emerging contemporary Australian sculptors. Large outdoor works will be displayed along the harbour foreshore and through the trees of Clarkes Point Reserve. Smaller works will be exhibited inside the Hunters Hill Sailing Club, Woolwich.

Mehrnoosh Nik Tavakoli’s ‘Madame’ certainly has plenty of personality. Her stance, as the artist intended used self reflection to create the unique nature of ‘Madame’s’ expression. Our bodies and our relationship with them require perpetual maintenance. It’s been a pleasure to enjoy her presence over the last 10 days! Visit HarbourSculpture.org.au for your last chance to view these amazing sculptures.

So wonderfull to have many of our artists volunteering during HarbourSculpture 2020. It was a pleasure to listen to Jenny Herbert Smith talk so passionately about her finalist piece ‘Modular Rhythms’. Her piece came in response to the importance placed on music evident in the creation of virtual music sessions during isolation. Our primal desire to connect through music drew a chord with Jenny’s personal music connections. She believes that music is something that we are drawn to and that it is innately a part of us. Like music being important during these difficult times, so should expressions of creativity. This truth resonates with the reasons why it was so important to make HarbourSculpture 2020 a reality.

Emerging artist Deborah Klinkhamer is a practicing architect her piece ‘Structures Unseen’ lies on the edges of our consciousness. How we perceive them depends on our experiences and imagination. She asks us “What is important? What is real?”
Against the backdrop of the harbour and historical industrial Cockatoo Island, maybe lies the remnants of civilisation, memories of destruction and decay she asks us to interpret in her sculpture?

The drama in Cathy Weiszmann – `Backflip’ is nothing short of spectacular. The movement and texture of the bronze form captures the sculptor’s friend as he “joyfully trusts in the goodness of the universe”. The almost silhouetted image, against our beautiful harbour backdrop is posted only to entice you to visit HarbourSculpture 2020 to view her work. Cathy’s obsession with anatomy and her metalwork form deserves only to be seen in the flesh. Visit www.harboursculpture.org.au to book you’re ticket and come and admire `Backflip’ before we close on Sunday 29th November.

HarbourSculpture couldn’t think of a more appropriate sculpture to take the finalist stage in this year’s event at the Balmain Rowing Club. John Fitzmaurice’s - `Underway’ is making waves by the harbour at HarbourSculpture 2020. John is inspired by natural forms and everyday objects which he transforms with abstraction and humour. This year’s exhibition draws on HOPE, as we reach out to the struggling arts community during COVID times to do our bit as a not-of-profit event to showcase diverse sculptures. As John says “What better way to self isolate….. I’m outta here! “
All our exhibition sculptures and for sale. Visit www.harboursculpture.org.au before `Underway’ sails away - outta here on Sunday 29th November.

Jenny Green’s `Bright Lights’ has certainly captured the attention of the young and the young at heart during our exhibtion. Her piece evokes optimism, resourcefulness and resilence conjured in a life criss-crossing paths and interaction periods of vibrancy and high energy offset by periods of reflection. As Jenny says “COVID has forced us to reframe priorities, to spend more time ‘being’ rather than ‘doing’” We HOPE that this will not defeat us. “Human ingenuity will prevail and together we will all emerge stronger”.
We hope you get to cross paths with `Bright Lights’ this weekend before HarbourSculpture 2020 closes on Sunday 29th November. Visit www.harboursculpture.com.au

Sollai Cartwright inspiring piece - `Dancer by the Sea’ in bronze is certainly at home at HarbourSculpture. It’s bold imposing form sits proud and belonging beside the beautiful waters edge of the historic Balmain Rowing Club - another wonderful reason to visit HarbourSculpture 2020 to see the full expression of beauty.

Visit www.HarbourSculpture.org.au but hurry, last day Sunday 29 November. .cartwright.sculptor
