2012 Swell Sculpture Festival – Public Art

Hi all

Last year I was again lucky enough to attend the 2012 Swell Sculpture Festival at Currumbin Beach, Gold Coast, Australia. This time I was even luckier to be able to take some shots and night time and also at dawn. Here are some pics:

  1. Hello Des
    I would like to purchase images of “Kindled Spirits” from 2011 Swell Festival. I would like to display online as support material. If you could let me know how I go about this it would be very much appreciated
    Thanks and regards

      Hi Carmel

      Thanks very much for your message and my very sincere apologies for not replying much sooner. I am the full time carer for my 96 year old Father and things get a bit tiring /distracting at times. So again, sorry.

      Yes, of course you may use the images, for free, for ever, as long as they are not for large scale or decidedly commercial uses like billboards and advertisements for entities apart from yourself, your work and your site (which are fine of course), etc.

      Here’s a link to a special unlisted gallery featuring only your work from 2011. If you have any worries navigating the gallery or downloading the photos, please comfortable to let me know.

      All the best with your artistic endeavours Carmel.

      Regards
