Simon Perry
Simon Perry is a British sculptor and academic, based in Melbourne, Australia. Best known for his large-scale public art works for urban spaces in Australia and overseas, Perry’s practice incorporates numerous sculptural techniques including casting, carving and fabrication. His works have been created in bronze, concrete, granite, steel, aluminium, wood and stone. Perry's commissioned pieces are predominantly site-specific, and often address elements of environment and public space with a gentle humour.
==Early Life and Education==
From the age of seven Perry was regularly taken to the British Museum where he developed an interest in Assyrian and Egyptian sculpture; he cites the smoothness, monumental scale and coolness of the stone as having a profound effect on him.〔2010 Katherine Harrington - ‘Sculpture and the Enemies’ interview with Simon Perry. Issue 3, 2010 P 18-25〕
Perry was taught by artists such as Richard Deacon, Anthony Gormley and David Nash at the Chelsea College of Art (now Chelsea College of Art and Design) where he studied from 1981 to 1984 to receive his Bachelor of Arts with Honours. From 1984 to 1987 Perry studied to receive his Master of Arts from the Royal Academy, where, in 1987, he won the Royal Academy Gold Medal for Sculpture. In 1987 he also won the prestigious British Prix de Rome for sculpture, a scholarship allowing him to study at the British School in Rome from 1987 to 1989. Perry has said that the scholarship was significant in his development because he "became interested in the history between art and architecture. No one can walk into the Pantheon and not be transformed by it." 〔2010 Katherine Harrington - ‘Sculpture and the Enemies’ interview with Simon Perry. Issue 3, 2010 P 18-25〕
