The Stick
Image source Shire of Augusta Margaret River
Artist: Russell Sheridan
Asset Type: Sculpture
Year of Work: 2013
Location: Riflebutts Reserve Park
Provenance: Shire of Augusta Margaret River
Description: This sculpture celebrates man’s best friend.
Dogs can sniff out cancer, they have led the blind, stood keeping vigil for their families all night and have been a welcoming friend at the end of a hard day.
Not only that, but they’re also willing to play silly games with us.
Located in one of the Shire’s dog exercise areas, this humorous sculpture reflects the unique bond and unconditional love between a dog and its human.
