Sculptor Glenn Morgan is known for his witty dioramas of concerts and sporting events. One of Morgan’s new works for the Basil Sellers Art Prize takes the form of a painted tin and wood bus full of Geelong AFL premiership players after the grand final. Through this work he celebrates the spirit and energy of AFL culture. Morgan’s large multi-component sculptures are often made from painted tin, wood and wire and include moving parts.
