Pelican Metal Sculpture - Long Jetty Peli - 54h x 50w x 24d cm

Long Jetty Peli is a freestanding pelican sculpture by Australian artist Simon Treseder, crafted from recycled metals and reclaimed cutlery. Referencing one of the most recognisable coastal birds, the work celebrates the pelican as an enduring icon of the NSW Central Coast.

Treseder’s inventive use of materials transforms everyday objects into layered texture and form, with cutlery elements subtly shaping feathers, beak and surface detail. The industrial origins of the materials remain visible, lending the sculpture character and authenticity while reinforcing the artist’s commitment to sustainable practice.

Balanced and expressive, the pelican’s stance conveys both familiarity and quiet presence. The sculpture invites close viewing, where thoughtful construction and material nuance are revealed from every angle. Long Jetty Peli sits comfortably within contemporary collections, particularly those drawn to regional narratives, coastal wildlife and sculptural works that combine craftsmanship with a sense of place.
