‘Forgotten Heroes” Installation- Inspire exhibition

Inspiration comes from all places. With another huge exhibition done and dusted Artist Robyn Dower has time to reflect on the list of challenges she accomplished. The Exhibition “INSPIRE” was held at the Wondai Regional Art Gallery in December2022/January2023. It included art installations, large and small paintings and large and small sculpture. The Art installation ‘Forgotten Heroes’ was based on a poem by her sister Kay Gorring. A beautiful heartfelt poem about a man reminiscing on his experiences in the war.

Some challenges were bigger than others when it came to this exhibition, none so more than that of building a life-size pony who was nicknamed ‘Dave’. He was quite the hit with the visitors

Then came some smaller sculptures all making up a successful exhibition

‘I have been so pleased with the results of the exhibition. I always like to challenge myself. Whether it is to sculpt bigger, paint smaller there is always an element of testing my limits to see what I can achieve’
