St Francis

St Francis, Padua College, Brisbane 2000s (3)

TITLE: St Francis

ARTIST: Jerko Starcevic (vision and creation)

LOCATION: Padua Catholic Senior College, Kedron, Brisbane.

DATE: 2000s

NOTES: The sculpture is of Saint Francis of Assisi , the venerated Roman Catholic saint. Here I tried to depict his serenity in nature. He called all creatures his “brothers” and “sisters,” and preached to the birds. The tones I have used arew for the poverty and Christlike-ness he and his followers celebrated.

"Essentially the paper plane concept has been used by the artist in this artwork to draw connection to the airfield activity in the area while communicating an environmental message".
