“Sculpture at Scenic World’ takes art beyond the white walls of the gallery space to create the unexpected among the natural environment,’ says curator, Justin Morrissey. ‘It invites visitors to explore nature and art in new ways; to discover more about our world heritage environment, and to celebrate the incredible talents of artists who have adapted their ideas to suit the natural environment.’
