Sculpture Park

As part of the Open Studio Art Trail, Kim Perrier Sculpture Park will be open for viewing along with works from Bridgetown artists Emily Smith and Margaret Rothery.

Margaret Rothery, who is now in her 90s, has taken up sculpting horses over the last few years and then having them cast in bronze.

Also on display is Kim’s latest award-winning sculpture which he entered as part of the 2023 Dunsborough Arts Festival, in the Sculpture by the Bay competition held over the long weekend in March, winning the People’s Choice Award with his statue ‘Freedom’.

Kim and Marie Perrier have been developing a sculpture park at their property on Dreyfus Street in Bridgetown to house and display Kim’s latest contemporary work. On display now are over thirty sculptures.

The sculptures Kim has produced over the years have been a mix of different materials, ranging from works in bronze, concrete, resin to remnants from the bush.

Kim has recently finished a sculpture design in concrete of a ‘money frog’. This sculpture will be used as an honesty box for when visitors come to view the garden, with the frog being a depository in which they can leave a cash donation after enjoying the sculptures in his Sculpture Garden.

During the Open Studios Art Trail the gardens and studio will be open, with an artist on hand, from 10am till 5pm from 1st to 16th of April.

The garden will then be opened to the public to view as they wish. A solar light system has been set up so the sculptures are lit up at dusk, giving the park a whole different atmosphere.

The sculpture park is continually growing and developing, along with Kim’s need to be creative.
