Wrapped Axe
‘Wrapped Axe’, silicone bronze, H-14cm x W-8cm x L-15cm, weighs approx. 1Kg
David Hamilton's Wrapped Axe sculpture uses the axe as a metaphor to highlight ideas that have developed primarily out of a concern for the accelerating loss of Tasmania's native old growth forests.
David Hamilton was born and educated in Hobart, Tasmania. For 30 years until 2002 he was Head of Sculpture, University of Tasmania at Launceston. He presently works as a full time practicing sculptor and during 2011 successfully completed a PhD titled Fragments: Beyond the Object.
Over the last ten years David has exhibited in over 40 curated and juried exhibitions both in Australia and overseas. His work is represented in various university, public, corporate and private collections within Australia and overseas. During this time he has also undertaken a number of major public sculpture commissions in his home state of Tasmania.
