Inge King's sculpture 'Link III' is one of two of her works in Sculpture by the sea's 2016 edition. She passed away in April aged 100. This work brought from her garden studio dates to 2007-8, around the time she gained recognition for her long career in public sculpture.
The stainless steel sculpture is beautifully balanced and dominates its site. In her words talking about another sculpture, 'Rings of Saturn': 'Conquering the landscape does not rely on scale but simplicity and clarity of form expressing inner strength and tension...I like it to arouse people’s curiosity to explore the work. Multidimensional objects look different from every angle. The exciting thing about outdoor sculpture is the change with the light, the weather… everything is in constant flux. It becomes almost a living entity.'
She studied in Berlin, London and Glasgow from 1937-43; was a survivor of the holocaust and moved to Melbourne in 1951.
