David Hamilton Sculptor

For more than four decades, Tasmanian sculptor David Hamilton has shaped metal, timber and stone into powerful works that explore environmental loss, old-growth forests and our connection to place.

His practice spans monumental public art commissions and more intimate sculptures for domestic settings. Across every scale, Hamilton’s work is distinguished by its confident form, material sensitivity and exceptional craftsmanship.

Following a major survey exhibition at QVMAG in 2026, Hamilton presents a selection of smaller sculptural works alongside Gene McLaren in Tensile: Explorations in Metal and Form at Blenheim Gallery.

Bold, colourful and elemental, Tensile reveals how metal can carry movement, tension and meaning.
