      <image:title>THE LATEST NEWS - ANNOUNCING THE SELECTION PANEL FOR SIG 2024 - Steven Alderton</image:title>
      <image:caption>Steven Alderton is the Director and CEO of the National Art School with over 25 years’ experience in the visual arts and education as an artist, curator and director. Previous roles include Director of Programs, Exhibitions and Cultural Collections at the Australian Museum; Director Casula Powerhouse Arts Centre; Director Lismore Regional Gallery; Manager Bundaberg Arts Centre; Director Redland Art Gallery; Curator Wagga Wagga City Art Gallery and Events Manager at the Institute of Modern Art. Steven established an artist run initiative and artist studios just after leaving Art College and is committed to developing and fostering emerging artists and sustaining mid to late career artists’ practice. Why are you excited to be involved in SIG 2022? I’m looking forward to seeing the interaction between sculpture and the extraordinary landscape around Mudgee. What will you be looking for in submissions? How the work transforms and/ or complements the landscape, how the work operates on multiple vistas and resonates within, and the ideas and skill in making the work. What advice would you give to emerging artists? Keep thinking, keep drawing, keep making – and enjoy resolving new ideas and difficult outcomes – for that is the space where truly transformational art resides.</image:caption>

      <image:title>THE LATEST NEWS - ANNOUNCING THE SELECTION PANEL FOR SIG 2024 - Paul Bangay</image:title>
      <image:caption>Paul Bangay is undoubtedly one of Australia's pre-eminent landscape designers and gardening authorities. The author of eleven books (1996-2023), his work has been featured in a dozen other titles, and in countless magazines over the course of his near to 40-year career. Aside from his professional achievements, Bangay has consistently given his time to charitable, philanthropic and civic endeavours. “I think of sculpture as enhancing the work of landscape designers. The correct placement of a sculpture in a garden brings life to the space. Its form, colour and materiality attract the eye and add interest to key places in the garden. I personally use sculpture to lead the eye around a garden, I use them sparingly as a key focal point in the landscape.” Paul Bangay</image:caption>

      <image:caption>2023 MOOLARBEN Acquisition The shadow/reflection is unseen by the casting figure. This is in keeping with Jung's theory, "The shadow personifies everything that the subject refuses to acknowledge about himself". The shadow is displaying two opposing traits of the figure's personality. The front is bright and polished while the back is tarnished.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>2021 MWRC / SIG Acquisition “Ahead” is our guardian. She was intended to be the head for “Transition” the largest work I have built to date; however it was too large, meaning the finished sculpture would not fit with in the confines of the studio roof! Ahead became a work on its own right… ‘we were not behind but ahead!’. And Transition went on to win Sculpture by the Sea in Cottesloe WA.

      <image:title>THE LATEST NEWS - A GIFT OF ART TO THE REGION - THE LEGACY OF THE LAWSON PARK SCULPTURE WALK - Figure &amp; Shadow by Peter Tilley (Hamilton Sth)</image:title>
      <image:caption>2023 MOOLARBEN Acquisition The shadow/reflection is unseen by the casting figure. This is in keeping with Jung's theory, "The shadow personifies everything that the subject refuses to acknowledge about himself". The shadow is displaying two opposing traits of the figure's personality. The front is bright and polished while the back is tarnished.</image:caption>

      <image:title>THE LATEST NEWS - A GIFT OF ART TO THE REGION - THE LEGACY OF THE LAWSON PARK SCULPTURE WALK - Ahead by Harrie Fasher (Portland)</image:title>
      <image:caption>2021 MWRC / SIG Acquisition “Ahead” is our guardian. She was intended to be the head for “Transition” the largest work I have built to date; however it was too large, meaning the finished sculpture would not fit with in the confines of the studio roof! Ahead became a work on its own right… ‘we were not behind but ahead!’. And Transition went on to win Sculpture by the Sea in Cottesloe WA. Artist represented by King Street Gallery on William.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Selection Panel - Steven Alderton</image:title>
      <image:caption>Steven Alderton is the Director and CEO of the National Art School with over 25 years’ experience in the visual arts and education as an artist, curator and director. Previous roles include Director of Programs, Exhibitions and Cultural Collections at the Australian Museum; Director Casula Powerhouse Arts Centre; Director Lismore Regional Gallery; Manager Bundaberg Arts Centre; Director Redland Art Gallery; Curator Wagga Wagga City Art Gallery and Events Manager at the Institute of Modern Art. Steven established an artist run initiative and artist studios just after leaving Art College and is committed to developing and fostering emerging artists and sustaining mid to late career artists’ practice. Why are you excited to be involved in SIG 2022? I’m looking forward to seeing the interaction between sculpture and the extraordinary landscape around Mudgee. What will you be looking for in submissions? How the work transforms and/ or complements the landscape, how the work operates on multiple vistas and resonates within, and the ideas and skill in making the work. What advice would you give to emerging artists? Keep thinking, keep drawing, keep making – and enjoy resolving new ideas and difficult outcomes – for that is the space where truly transformational art resides.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Selection Panel - Paul Bangay</image:title>
      <image:caption>Paul Bangay is undoubtedly one of Australia's pre-eminent landscape designers and gardening authorities. The author of eleven books (1996-2023), his work has been featured in a dozen other titles, and in countless magazines over the course of his near to 40-year career. Aside from his professional achievements, Bangay has consistently given his time to charitable, philanthropic and civic endeavours. “I think of sculpture as enhancing the work of landscape designers. The correct placement of a sculpture in a garden brings life to the space. Its form, colour and materiality attract the eye and add interest to key places in the garden. I personally use sculpture to lead the eye around a garden, I use them sparingly as a key focal point in the landscape.” Paul Bangay</image:caption>

      <image:title>Prize Winners - Keeper by Ingrid Morley (Jenolan)</image:title>
      <image:caption>2023 MWRC / SIG Acquisition This work subverts traditional aesthetics to reclaim the silenced female voice in art, challenging the objectification imposed by the male gaze. Inspired by the crouching Aphrodite (275 BC), this sculpture intends to disrupt its origin, honouring the vital role of women in nurturing and preserving our natural world</image:caption>

      <image:title>Prize Winners - Figure &amp; Shadow by Peter Tilley (Hamilton Sth)</image:title>
      <image:caption>2023 MOOLARBEN Acquisition The shadow/reflection is unseen by the casting figure. This is in keeping with Jung's theory, "The shadow personifies everything that the subject refuses to acknowledge about himself". The shadow is displaying two opposing traits of the figure's personality. The front is bright and polished while the back is tarnished.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Prize Winners - Ahead by Harrie Fasher (Portland)</image:title>
      <image:caption>2021 MWRC / SIG Acquisition “Ahead” is our guardian. She was intended to be the head for “Transition” the largest work I have built to date; however it was too large, meaning the finished sculpture would not fit with in the confines of the studio roof! Ahead became a work on its own right… ‘we were not behind but ahead!’. And Transition went on to win Sculpture by the Sea in Cottesloe WA. Artist represented by King Street Gallery on William.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>MATERIAL: bronze / steel truck tipper part/ concrete SIZE: 189 x 45 x 53 (mm) PRICE: $26,000 STATEMENT: As an artist I’m deeply affected by my surroundings, the experience of the landscape and the people who live there. It is an almost physical force, to me. More recently, machine parts from the earth moving industry in conjunction with the figure have found their way into my practice. The use of these incongruent combinations of subject and material helps me to convey nuanced ideas that interest me. Watcher is in part an exploration of figurative form, a meeting place with industry and a quirky invocation to be observant. ARTIST BIO: My practice of drawing, tracing, welding, bending and cutting has been punctuated by traditional methods of modeling and casting the human form, a consistent subject for conceptual explorations. Drawing and painting has assisted in the development of ideas for sculpture and accompanied me on journeys into the landscape.</image:caption>

I admire this break-away achievement and invented an imaginary pet, as a being in the painter’s household, to celebrate this moment."

By learning how to stand up for ourselves with the purpose of surviving and live together, just like any other ecosystem we know. However, neither the ocean nor the land knows distinction of race or colour, it all lives at once. After I had the pleasure to work with an amazing black model at my studio.

      <image:title>2021 Exhibition 271-282 - 275.   ‘Mudgee – Nest In The Hills - Large’ by David Doyle (Bell Park)</image:title>
      <image:caption>MATERIAL: Steel SIZE: 270 x 70 x 20 (cm) PRICE: $1,250 (large) ARTIST STATEMENT: The name Mudgee means 'Nest in the Hills'.

In trying to capture the essence of things, I get a glimpse into the underlying beauty. What else can one share or ask about 'art'.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Info for Artists 2025 - Steven Alderton</image:title>
      <image:caption>Steven Alderton is the Director and CEO of the National Art School with over 25 years’ experience in the visual arts and education as an artist, curator and director. Previous roles include Director of Programs, Exhibitions and Cultural Collections at the Australian Museum; Director Casula Powerhouse Arts Centre; Director Lismore Regional Gallery; Manager Bundaberg Arts Centre; Director Redland Art Gallery; Curator Wagga Wagga City Art Gallery and Events Manager at the Institute of Modern Art. Steven established an artist run initiative and artist studios just after leaving Art College and is committed to developing and fostering emerging artists and sustaining mid to late career artists’ practice. Why are you excited to be involved in SIG 2022? I’m looking forward to seeing the interaction between sculpture and the extraordinary landscape around Mudgee. What will you be looking for in submissions? How the work transforms and/ or complements the landscape, how the work operates on multiple vistas and resonates within, and the ideas and skill in making the work. What advice would you give to emerging artists? Keep thinking, keep drawing, keep making – and enjoy resolving new ideas and difficult outcomes – for that is the space where truly transformational art resides.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Info for Artists 2025 - Paul Bangay</image:title>
      <image:caption>Paul Bangay is undoubtedly one of Australia's pre-eminent landscape designers and gardening authorities. The author of eleven books (1996-2023), his work has been featured in a dozen other titles, and in countless magazines over the course of his near to 40-year career. Aside from his professional achievements, Bangay has consistently given his time to charitable, philanthropic and civic endeavours. “I think of sculpture as enhancing the work of landscape designers. The correct placement of a sculpture in a garden brings life to the space. Its form, colour and materiality attract the eye and add interest to key places in the garden. I personally use sculpture to lead the eye around a garden, I use them sparingly as a key focal point in the landscape.” Paul Bangay</image:caption>

Susan is responsible for the vision behind some of Australia’s most impressive houses, as well as contributing significantly to advancing early-career architects in Australia through architectural innovation and educational projects.
