Darren Gilbert (Monkeytail Design)is a central Victorian artist who makes stunning sculptural works created from used timbers & rust bittern objects – inspired by shapes found in the natural landscape; giant seed pods, stylised leaves and abstract bird forms. Contemporary outdoor wall-art featuring laser-cut designs, majestic engineered garden forms and all manner of statement pieces created from salvaged objects, weathered timbers & rustic metal. His sculptures and bird baths can be found in the Sculpture garden and nursery at Bulleen Art and Garden
He has exhibited in the Bolin Bolin Gallery showing his striking pen & ink artworks celebrate Australian fauna, beckoning viewers to stop and really “see” the fascinating and often overlooked characteristics of our natives, as well as his sculpture.
