eleven eleven

On Friday 11/11/11 we went to Sculptures by the Sea, Australia's largest annual sculpture exhibition.  The coastal walk from Bondi to Tamarama beach is lined with over one hundred sculptures by Australian and international artists.  There are so many amazing inspiring sculptures, here are some of my favourites.

Stunning. And what a glorious backdrop to showcase the sculptures. Would have enjoyed walking alongside you. All the spirals are amazing (of course!) and love, "I have been dreaming to be a tree,' 'Isometric Trinity,' and, 'Transfiguration.' Thanks for sharing!! xxx

Oh my goodness...these are fabulous. Each one kept being my favorite but I love "Dreaming to be a Tree", "Childhood Dreaming", and "Who Left the Tap Running". All of the sculptures are amazing.

"I have been dreaming to be a tree" is my favourite, it is the most beautiful sculpture. I wish it was mine :).

I'm sure it would look right at home in your beautiful backyard forest! (Wonder how much it is...?)

Hm, do you think it would scare the 'bark' (read: 'crapola') right out of our neighbor's dogs if we had it in our backyard??? For that, I would pay almost anything!!

Happy Monday, you.
