Braemar Gallery is proud to program the Public Sculpture Program and invites emerging, established, and / or professional sculptors to exhibit their work on the two sculpture pads on the lawns of Braemar House as part of the Public Sculpture Garden. Exhibition is through an application and assessment process. Selected artists are not required to pay any fees to exhibit in Public Sculpture Garden. Interested artists are encouraged to refer to this information then submit a proposal using this form to braemargallery@gmail.com

NEIL LAREDO'S 'Bell' is now on display out the front of Braemar House

Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s poem The Bells, the sculpture explores how familiar sounds and everyday objects can act as metaphors for human experience. Laredo draws on the poem’s evocation of childhood, youth, maturity, and death to reflect on memory, nostalgia, and the ways ordinary sounds become deeply embedded in our lives.

Neil is also exhibiting small sculpture and drawings inside Braemar Gallery until Sunday 21 June. His exhibition Identity connects to further to some of the themes present in Bell. Explore the exhibition program here.
