Chainsaw Tree Sculpture

Located in the heart of West Wyalong's McCann Park, the impressive Tree Sculpture is a standout feature of the Bland Shire Art Trail, which also includes attractions such as the Big Football in Ungarie, the Weethalle Silo Mural, the Russell Drysdale Monument, and the Reg Rattey VC Statue. Created by renowned Melbourne artist Brandon Kroon, a world-class chainsaw carver, the sculpture was expertly crafted from a single Red Gum tree stump using only a chainsaw. The artwork beautifully depicts two iconic Australian birds, the majestic Wedge-tailed Eagle and the elusive Malleefowl, celebrating the region's natural heritage and wildlife. Completed in just one week, this remarkable piece of public art showcases exceptional skill and craftsmanship. Nestled amongst the picturesque gardens of McCann Park, the sculpture offers a unique blend of art, nature, and local character. Conveniently located at the junction of the Newell and Mid-Western Highways, the Tree Sculpture is an ideal stop for travellers exploring the Bland Shire. Whether you're an art enthusiast, nature lover, or passing visitor, this striking landmark provides a memorable photo opportunity and a chance to experience one of the region's most distinctive public artworks.
