PETER TILLEY

Born in Victoria and now resident in Newcastle, NSW, Peter Tilley  has been exhibiting widely for nearly 30 years.  A regular and popular exhibitor at Sculpture by the Sea, both in Cottesloe and Bondi, Peter also successfully participated at Sculpture by the Sea in Denmark in June of this year.   This is his second exhibition at Gallery East.

He writes about his 'table' bronze sculptures : “I am always looking for meaning and inspiration in everyday objects; through their material form and history. They are a record of time, place and circumstance and reflect the rituals of life”.

The figure in each of these works, sometimes accompanied by  a cat, finds himself in a different situation with a selection objects from a lifetime of habits and pastimes. The placement of items creates a tension, as the unusual and everyday merge to render the familiar, strange.
