" Spirit of the Light Horse" - ANZAC Centenary SculpturePrint Page
The sculpture commemorates the centenary of ANZAC and those who served in World War One.
Samson, the major sculpture was created by artist, Sue Tilley, from a range of vintage metal objects collected locally. Samson, together with the surrounding Light Horse Brigade silhouettes, form a prominent tribute to the spirit of the ANZACs.
Funding was received through Anzac Centenary Grants Program. Additional funding was received through the Armistice Centenary Grants Program to create a shellac mosaic poppy path to lead up to the main sculpture.
Note: The sculpture is located in the grounds of the RSL which is now closed.
