Ian Kay

Following an enthusiastic and varied career path, including forestry, journalism and manufacturing, Ian now makes time to more fully explore his artistic bent. Having earlier dabbled in ceramics and lost wax casting, his passion now is to create award-winning sculpture and 2D mixed media pieces that celebrate his affinity with recycled timber and found objects.

A special fascination for Ian is the fact that he can do this by adapting a wide range of tools and technical skills that he has acquired in his every day work endeavours. Highlights for him in the Perth Art scene include being winner of the 2017 Wanneroo Community Art Award, and his creations being the Hale Art Boarder's acquisition choice for three consecutive years.
