Wire mesh sculptures of woolly sheep graze across a sun-parched paddock, casting long shadows in late afternoon light. These intricate metal artworks capture the essence of Australian merino livestock, their textured bodies crafted with remarkable detail to evoke the rugged pastoral landscapes of rural New South Wales. Different sized sculptures - a mature sheep and several lambs - create a sense of herd movement and natural grouping, their wire-woven forms blending subtly with the dry, tawny grasslands. The sculptures demonstrate extraordinary craftsmanship, transforming industrial materials into organic shapes that symbolize the enduring connection between Australian agriculture and artistic interpretation. Weathered ground surrounding the sculptures suggests a drought-affected landscape, highlighting the resilience embedded in both the artistic representation and the actual pastoral traditions. The watermarked "Almandin" branding in the corner suggests these are curated art pieces documenting contemporary rural creative expression.
