Colleen Lavender

Colleen Lavender is a multifaceted Sculptor working between public art, private collections, selected sculpture exhibitions and commercial sculpture. Her favourite medium is steel, old and weathered or pristine, both cut to perfection by hand with a plasma cutter in her Queensland Studio. Colleen’s work speaks to the experience of being a female in a male dominated trade and quite often packs a punch!
Unbridled Freedom
What is it about girls and horses? Before I knew what one was, I wanted one!
Many children feel this way – is this a cellular memory reminding us of how pivotal horses have been in the creation of society, or is it a window to freedom, the untamed energy and power of the animal drawing the viewer in?
Come and see for yourself at SWELL Sculpture Festival, Pacific Parade, Currumbin 12th – 21st September.
