Since 1997 Peter Syndicas’ sculptures have been inspired by his fascination with organic forms. His searches specifically for twigs forms that portray a human figure as it gives each of his sculptures a unique duality. On the one hand they are magnified reproductions of fragile twigs, while at the same time they display these very expressive abstract human forms. Peter has taken part in the Waterhouse Natural History Art Prize four times and was awarded second prize in 2008. Peter has also taken part in many group exhibits including the Heysen Sculpture Biennial where he won the people’s choice award in 2012. Since 2009 he has been represented by the Hill Smith Gallery where he has exhibited multiple times. Peter has participated in the Sculptors @ Crystal Lake 2015, 2017 and 2019 symposia. His sculptures “Chardonnay” and “Shiraz crown (cutting), commissioned by Longview Winery are installed in front of the Longview Cellar door.
