The exhibition will open on Wednesday, March 13 with the official opening of the Hilltops Off the Beaten Track Art and Cultural Trail.

Executive Director of Southern Tablelands Arts Rose Marin will officially open the exhibition and the Hilltops Art and Cultural Trail.

The Young Society of Arts 2024 Sculpture Wood and Big Art exhibition will feature the work of Sydney sculptural, painter and land artist Keith Chidzey.

After 20 years of private practice dentistry, Mr Chidzey completed a Master’s Research Degree in Sculpture, Performance and Installation at the College of Fine Arts (University of New South Wales).

“The land, its interpretation, and issues surrounding its usage and intervention have been a recurring theme throughout my work,” Mr Chidzey said.

“My university research centred around fire and refinement through fire, its controllability, its significance and its aesthetic and hypnotic qualities.”

The exhibition showcases many elements of his work over recent years.

The exhibition will be open daily from Thursday, March 14 to Sunday, March 24.

A gold coin donation would be appreciated.
