Sculpture on the Cliffs, Hermanus.
I always look forward to the Sculpture on the Cliffs outdoor exhibition that takes place at the Hermanus FynArts Festival in winter. This years event is on from the 8 - 17 June 2018. What a wonderful setting with stunning views across Walker Bay from the cliff path walk at Gearings Point. This spectacular vantage point offers a wonderful interaction between the sculptures and nature. With a bit of luck you may even glimpse a whale in the sea below.
The human figure is the theme was this years event and ten artists were invited to show their work.
I enjoyed the Whistling Tourist by Frank van Reenen, added a bit of cheer on a cold day.

There it is by Stridom van der Merwe. Strydom says that this sculpture is a depiction of the reason why most visitors and tourists come to Hermanus: whale spotting.

Really like the Altar Boy.
Really cool pieces. Love the one of the kid on parents shoulders watching whales.
Oros Man except he is blue and white, lovely share on art.
A great post and we also have some photos about the other art pieces on the shore! Hermanus is a friendly town! Blessings and upvoted!
That first picture looks like homer simpson to me.
