Gallery patron and former South Burnett mayor David Carter cut out the artworks by jigsaw and fastened them to the building<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

April 18, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n

There’ll be no mistaking the location of the Wondai Art Gallery after some hard work this week from a group of gallery volunteers.<\/p>\n

The building now features an impressive series of artworks – and a cut-out name sign – across the rear wall of the gallery buildings.<\/p>\n

This position is designed to entice people enjoying the new Wondai Village Green to cross the park to visit the gallery.<\/p>\n

The artworks were designed by Tingoora artist Robyn Dower and then cut out life-size by gallery patron and former South Burnett mayor David Carter.<\/p>\n

The figures – three children, three adults and two dogs – have been cut from hardwood formply and sealed with epoxy to protect them from the weather.<\/p>\n

Gallery curator Elaine Madill said it was decided to do the project this way instead of a mural so the figures could be removed from the wall if necessary or if the building itself needed to be repainted.<\/p>\n

The figures all represent real people: gallery volunteers “Big Pete”, “Little Pete” and Sue Bradley plus local children Jeremy, Lucy and Francis Hobbs.<\/p>\n

And one of the cut-out dogs is very special to Elaine; it depicts a former pet, border collie Bessie, who was 16 when it died a few years ago.<\/p>\n
