"Mirroring" is a sculpture created by Danish artist Keld Moseholm in 1995. It is located beside the Twin Ponds in the Royal Botanic Gardens. This sculpture was the winner of Sculpture by the Sea in Sydney in 2010. It is part of a scheme begun this year to display the winners of that competition in the Botanic Gardens or adjoining Domain for ten years before being moved on to other public gardens.
Funny sculpture, I could play there.

Is it wrong that it reminds me of Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee?
ReplyDeleteA most unusual art-work - I'm trying to work out the meaning behind it! maybe a balancing act?
ReplyDeleteCool photo.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of a sculpture moving every few years to be enjoyed by as many people as possible.
ReplyDeleteThe Botanic Gardens are a true gem. I am enjoying your pics.
ReplyDeleteI like the sculpture and the idea of moving the winnes to new locations so others may enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteFabulous piece - great idea to display them afterwards! Do they pay the artists? ( Always the big ?? in these matters)
ReplyDeleteRed Pat, I'm not sure about that but I imagine they would. I don't know whether they are buying the pieces. I think they are more likely leasing them.
ReplyDeleteSuch a great way to keep the public aware of new art! Like an evolving outdoor gallery! I like how this piece stirs questions! Fascinating!
ReplyDeleteVery interesting sculpture, Jim.
