After a three-year hiatus, Sculpture by the Sea (SXS) is returning to Bondi’s iconic coastal walk, opening this weekend.
While for Australia that hiatus was caused by pandemic disruptions, for others in the world there has also been a period of conflict. This is acknowledged at this year’s edition of the outdoor sculpture event with a special showcase spotlighting four Ukrainian artists.
