Lionel Bawden
The amorphous ones (the vast colony of our being)
This beautiful sculpture stood out among the usual landscapes and was certainly presented in a prime location. The work was also a nice break from the strong personalities of the Archibald and some of the overwhelming painting techniques. The work was well crafted and a joy to look at. The natural shapes explored our emotional connect to landscape and was a great representation of a contemporary take on this genre. Lionel's speech was very sweet and humble, congratulations to him and his representing gallery GRANTPIRRIE.
