Gladstone sculptures

A warm sunny saturday morning and we head over the the Gladstone Vineyard. This weekend has the grounds littered with stunning sculptures. This bull was magnificent, and made of barbed wire. Fortunately he stook still when David approached!

 The eels were lifelike too, made from porcelin

 Beautifully crafted in steel

 Swarming with beetles, this old car looked right at home alongside an old harvesting machine. Qualis Vita Finis Ita was created by Niko Thomsen.

 Yes, this chaise, was made of barbed wire. My yoga training helped here!

 These children are made of orange plastic netting and were right at home, playing amongst the bullrushes

 Glass birds alongside the river

 More pieces of the puzzle. I really liked the asethetics of these pieces by Stueart Welsh using Corten Steel. This one is called Piece of Sky.

 this lace cloth and table setting was made of metal. Most inviting

 strung up in the trees, one of the few sculputres made of fibre, rustling in the breeze

 Ready to take flight

Reminiscent of La metropolitan metro entrance way in Paris, an archway to the river. Jane, David and I headed off to the vineyard cafe and sat outside for our lushous lunch platter of green olive tapenade, sundried tomatoes, cheeses and fresh fruit, and of course, a sip of Gladstone wines.
