Commissions
Dibble Studio, as with many artist practices, often takes on commissions where a specific theme is requested, or a sculpture needs to be site specific.
Station Gate Work
The gateway work was commissioned for a large Station, to sit on two large stone plinths either side of a gateway to the farm and native land block. Keen to reflect the natural features of the area six of the local native birds are positioned over-scaled, the people becoming insignificant in the landscape.
APPROXIMATE DIMENSIONS FOR EACH | 1300 x 1000 x 1000 MM
New Horizons
Commissioned for a site at Lake Hayes in Queenstown New Horizon is an abstracted figurative work of a female form reclining. The long length of the leg echoes the horizon beyond while the other leg, a simple cone shape, tips forward in an unexpected slant. The breasts are two simple cut out circles and the head is a ball, miraculously still on the tipped shelf of her shoulders. This study is based on drawings and models left by the artist Paul Dibble (died 2023) and never realised in his lifetime.
DIMENSIONS | 2180 x 2580 x 820 MM
