Wangaratta Art Gallery
Sculpture, Mandy Gunn, Fire Sticks, 2009
Gunn’s work explores political and social values through the mediums she uses and the inspiration she draws upon. In 'Fire Sticks', Gunn uses recycled material as an explorational response to throw away culture, while the design draws inspiration from the sticks used in firestick farming and the charred remains of flora after a fire, which highlights the history and place of fire in Australia.Wangaratta Art Gallery Collection. Winner of the 2009 Wangaratta Contemporary Textile Award.This artwork was sculpted out of recycled inner tubes woven together with cotton thread on wooden poles.wangaratta art gallery, mandy gunn, sculpture, textile, wcta
