Lake Ballard - Day Trip

BlueSky offers you a day trip to see Australia’s largest outdoor gallery on Lake Ballard called INSIDE AUSTRALIA.  

The Lake Ballard salt lake holds 51 sculptures by Turner Prize-winning artist Antony Gormley which are all derived from laser scans of Menzies inhabitants. Antony Gormley used three-dimensional scans to map each body with half a million digital coordinates. Cross sections were then taken throughout the body, reduced by two thirds and the contours connected finishing with what the sculptor refers to as an ‘insider’.  They are then cast in an alloy containing molybdenum, vanadium and titanium, materials that are found in the Achaean rock of Western Australia.

After enjoying some art and the stunning lake, we will have lunch at the iconic Menzies Hotel (self purchased).

Please note:

• The trip is approxmiately 2.5 hours each way but you will get to enjoy the incredible Goldfields landscapes. 
• Walking on the lake can be very muddy so it is recommended to bring an old pair of shoes.
• Mimimum numbers are required for the tour to go ahead - Bus one 18 people (22 max), second bus further 18 people (22 max) with a total mximum of 44.  If one or both buses don't reach the required numbers, passengers will recieve a full refund.
