Walking through the centre of Canberra we constantly came across statues and other art work. They added some interest to our walks from one place to another and brightened the city up.
We didn’t go out of our way to find them so were happy when we stumbled on them.

Running from 20 October until 6 November 2023, Bondi Sculpture by the Sea 2023 boasts 110 sculptures. Placed along the 2 km Bondi to Tamarama walk, they have the beautiful coastline as a backdrop.
Because parking is limited at Bondi Beach, we took public transport. Catching the train from Central Station to Bondi Junction we then got the 330 bus to Bondi Beach. This is a very popular event and the bus was very crowded, but they were running regularly, so we didn’t have to wait long.
With so many sculptures on display there should be something to interest everyone. This year, more use was made of Tamarama Beach, with exhibits on the sand.
Some of our favorite sculptures are in the photos below.

Built in 2019, the Eveleigh Tree House was designed as a retreat from the bustle of everyday life and is aimed at both adults and children. Constructed out of steel and recycled hardwood, the structure is an impressive 10m x 20m x 12m tall.
A collaboration between Nell, Cave Urban and Carriageworks, the treehouse also used public workshops to form the metal leaves. After a course with basic blacksmithing skills, participants formed the leaves, making each one an individual. If you look at the leaves they also have the name of the maker scribed onto them.
Located in Everleigh Green, it can be found on the corner of Henderson and Davey Roads. We caught the train to Redfern Railway Station and walked from there.
