Editor's Inspiration and President's Letter for June 2026

“It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.” (Henry David Thoreau)

 Hello Sculptors and congratulations!  

You have put on a great display of sculpture - all the exhibitors and organisers should be proud of yourselves.


We set up, recorded and then celebrated in fine style… there was a glitch when our judge, Suzette Wearne from McClelland Sculpture Park and Gallery was unable to judge the show - emergencies happen - oh dear! And then Daniel Agdag was contacted, stepped in and did a remarkable job of judging and commenting.

The 2026 ski season opening at Falls Creek earlier this month saw the unveiling of Giovanni Veronesi’s Flower of the Alpine Sun, 2026 – the highest altitude public artwork in Australia.

Visitors to the work are immersed in the alpine environment to share in a unique experience of this place, fostering an appreciation of the ecosystem to encourage awareness for its preservation for generations to come.

Convened in conjunction with the Melbourne Prize Trust, Giovanni Veronesi won the Falls Creek Gateway Public Art Commission.
