Living Desert Sculptures

The Living Desert Sculptures are 12 large sandstone sculptures located on a hilltop in the Living Desert State Park, about 9 kilometres north of Broken Hill in far western New South Wales. Created in 1993 by artists from around the world during a sculpture symposium, the works are set within a 2,400-hectare flora and fauna sanctuary. The site is renowned for its desert landscape, panoramic views and celebrated sunset vistas over the Barrier Ranges.

Visitors can expect a hilltop outdoor gallery of 12 monumental sandstone sculptures set in an arid desert reserve. The site is reached via walking trails through the Living Desert flora and fauna sanctuary with native plants and wildlife. The sculptures are arranged on a rocky hill offering 360-degree panoramic views of the surrounding desert and Barrier Ranges. There are formed walking tracks, lookout areas and interpretive signage. The experience is primarily sightseeing, photography and sunset viewing in an open, exposed natural environment.
