Sculpture by The Sea - Bondi

Howdy fellas. Was in Sydney a month ago and it happened to be the weekend where Sculpture by The Sea exhibition on.

Scultpure by The Sea is an art exhibition sponsored by National bank, showcasing local and oversea artists' work. It is staged along the Bondi to Tamaram coastal walk. The use of recycle paper, hay and coffee cups or bottles for the sculptures were pretty amazing. Some were really good. Some, let's say I don't quite get it. Guess this is art.

Location = Bondi. Day = Glorious. Sunny + cool breeze. Managed to snap some pix.... check them out.

My favourite graffiti at Bondi. Artist unknown. I should find out.
Kill Bill... doing that whistle thing....



Had to take this pic... local surfer boy chills by the beach with a broken leg.


Bondi Beach


I'm not 100% sure but I think this ocean bath beside Bondi Beach is for members only.
Tamarama walk.
These are made of sand. I think the artist apply glue to the sneakers then rub sand all over it. Not sure... it's a guess.These are made of cardboards out of coffee cup lid. Or something similar. It's pretty cool.
I love this one. I can easily think of so many title for this artwork. To name one... "Lover awaits".
Some nests made out of rattan.
Notice the eyes?
Made of plastic tubes.
Love this. The detail of the artwork was just amazing.
This is pretty interesting. When the wind blows, every knob rotate to a different direction. Looks as if they were helium balloons.
At the indoor exhibition where the artist showcase smaller sculptures for sale.
Made out of bottles.
Road kill.

I'm back...

G'day lads! Has been a while since my last post. The past few months has been a bit of a roller coaster ride. I lost my job in Sydney, went back to Malaysia and Hong Kong for 3 weeks and moved to Melbourne. Haven't been in the right mind set to do much.

The past few months (since I got back to OZ in July) I have been struggling to get a full time job. Most of time was spent on bumming around (discovering Melbourne), job search and interviews. Even though I did manage to score some freelance work and got myself involved with a couple of employment agencies, it's still not enough. Need a stable income!

Anyway, I am working full time now. It's with PMP Digital. They have a ridiculous list of clients but at the moment, I'm working at one of the company's client's site which is The Good Guys (for those who don't know about The Good Guys, it's a store similar to Harvey Norman). Here, I do only creative work, passing on the artwork to mac operators once my creative gets the thumbs up from the boss/client.

It's a leap from my previous job with Media Merchants. Over there, I used to have to do everything, from creative to mac operator. To be honest, it's kinda tedious to do price changes and check the bloody 2mm gap on everything everyday. It's sad that they prefer operators than designers. I am confident enough to say that the artworks I produced at Media Merchants were good. Come to think about it now, it's sort of a blessing in disguise. I mean look at it this way, I was forced to pull the finger out and move to Melbourne, had a couple of months break, visited friends and family in Malaysia and Hong Kong and now working with one of the biggest agency in Victoria!
