Lake Ballard SculpturesPrint Page Print this page


Photographs supplied by Chris Abbott

The “Inside Australia” exhibition was commissioned to mark the 50th anniversary celebrations of the Perth International Arts Festival in 2003.

It was an idea of internationally renowned artist, Antony Gormley.  Apart from 2 or 3 passers-by the 51 sculptures are derived from laser scans of the inhabitants of Menzies.

The sculptures stand scattered over 10 square kilometres of the salt lake, named ‘Lake Ballard’, approximately 55 kilometres west from the townsite of Menzies.
