Sculpture by the Sea in Bondi is an annual event. The work is spread right across the cliff from Bronte Beach to Bondi Beach via Tamarama Beach. Every year the coastal walk is transformed into a seaside art gallery. About 100 sculptures are exhibited in the background of sea and the beautiful coastal landscape.
