We’d like to introduce a new series we call “Faces at Grounds For Sculpture!” Over the next month, you’ll hear from three individuals whom GFS has impacted and we hope their stories will inspire you to think of your own GFS memories Our first story is Clifford Ward, a resident artist here, who will hold an exhibition at GFS opening in May 2025. Giving to GFS makes stories like Clifford’s possible and lays the foundation for creative paths to thrive. Your gift will help provide access to the arts, nature, education, and wellness – all key tools for living a joyful life. Grounds For Sculpture needs your support so that we have the resources needed to maintain this special place where we can all find our path.

Grounds For Sculpture’s Post

Artists, creators, designers are often trained to think that form must follow function. This year, I participated in a gallery showing benefitting the local non-profit, Raksha Inc. with two mixed media pieces. As I created the pieces, I reflected on the form <=> function dialog. Since this piece uses ceramic bowls (that I had made early on) I asked of myself, what is the purpose of a bowl? >> Is it to cradle food? >> Is it to offer comfort and care? >> Is it an invitation for sharing? >> Is it to tell a story? And if so, whose? 'Hungry Unseen Legacies' is looking for a new home. https://lnkd.in/eXGV8N6t My second piece: Rough Draft / Speechless is sold.

Final chance to visit Sculpture by the Sea Bondi - coming to a close on the 4th November. Join us this weekend to celebrate. It has been a profound experience to collaborate with the rock landscape during the creation of Reclaimed Chaos. Reclaimed Chaos imagines a scenario where the world holds still for a moment like a collective held breath and asks: What would this pause allow us to think, feel, and do? What reflections from the last few years could shape a more hopeful future, and how can we take actionable steps toward that future? My artistic practice is grounded in exploring how art can act as a psychological tool for processing and engaging with one of the most pressing issues of our time: global climate change. As described by the Climate Psychology Alliance, “Climate psychology is concerned with the emotions, and the social and mental processes that have contributed to the ecological and climate crisis, and our responses and processes of adaptation to it (https://lnkd.in/g7t_5JZY) You can support this work by making a tax deductible donation: https://lnkd.in/gRsfb7in Photo by Charlotte Curd #sxs #sxs2024 #sculpturebythesea #sculpturebythesea2024 #sculpturebytheseabondi #bondi #sculpture #sculpureexhibition #publicart #publicsculpture #contemporary #contemporary #contemporaryartist #contemporarysculpture #environment #environmentalsustainability #ecoart #wood #timber #reclaimedwood #hanlonwindows #hanlon #waverleycouncil #waverley #responsiblewood

So beautiful & so important
UPDATE: This intricate 12th-century carving depicting the Deposition from the Cross is one of the most historically important items to have been on display at the Victoria and Albert Museum. We’re pleased to announce that the V&A has successfully raised funds to acquire this object. The acquisition is generously supported by a grant from the National Heritage Memorial Fund and Art Fund as part of a national public appeal which included support from grant-making organisations, individuals, members of the V&A Director’s Circle and Young Patrons’ Circle, V&A Members, and those who left a legacy gift in their Will. The intricate carving is heralded as one of the finest and most important examples of English Romanesque ivory carving to survive today. It will be re-united with the only known surviving piece believed to be of the same ensemble - a fragmentary ivory carving of Judas at the Last Supper, reported to have been discovered in Wakefield in the 18th century. The successful acquisition will see the sculpture enter the V&A's permanent collection and return to public display in V&A South Kensington's Medieval and Renaissance galleries later this year.

Your life is an autobiography unfolding, a never-finished sculpture, a work in progress, with chapters of external achievements and accomplishments followed by periods of internal rearrangement and renewal. The temporary destinations you reach are much less important than your ability to navigate and enjoy the journey. If you want to be happy, put your efforts into controlling the sail, not the wind. #beatonexecutivecoaching
