“Open the door…it may lead you to some place you never expected…” – unknown
Another sculpture piece at the Pt Leo Sculpture Park in Red Hill, Victoria.
This is called Dreams of Ordinary People (2010) made of cast iron/steel and is a sculpture of Peter Tilley, an Australian born sculptor.
Here, the the featureless human figure is standing at an opened up doorway and seems hesitant to proceed to the unknown…or to the future?
SquareUp – Open Up
Wise words, and I really like this sculpture
Yes, same here!
I love this kind of thing! You can read the expression on that face even though there isn’t one! ๐ ๐ And then the bath!
It’s up to your own interpretation. Good that you liked it, Jo!

Love this sculpture! Thanks for sharing
My pleasure to share it with you.
Intriguing. My first take on that bath (?) was that it was coffin shaped. I love such ambiguity.
Oh yes, I thought that at first too haha.
Great minds … and all that ๐
This is a wonderful sculpture. It seems to convey the hesitation we feel at an unknown entry (or perhaps an exit). The quote is appropriate. Thanks for bringing a bit of culture to us for Thursday Doors.
My pleasure Dan. Itโs amazing that we can feel something, although the face is expressionless.
The work of a good artist.
I really like this – it reminds me a little of the work of Anthony Gormley
I looked him up and I guess it does!
This is very creative sculpture
Yes Alice, simple but thought provoking.
This is a great find. Love it.
Thanks Jean!
Sculptures are always interesting and this one is no exception! Love the photos too! ๐
Thanks so much.
These are great pictures, Teresa.
Thanks Roberta!
The position of both the door and the person may evoke different reactions – a perfect artwork…with a door. What a find, Teresa! Jesh
PS my doors are now in a separate post. Scroll down…

Thanks Teagan.Hugs too!
Great pictures!
I wonder if at any time during the day the statue’s shadow reflects in the pool?
That’s a good question. Maybe it does. Thanks for the comment, Patricia.
Lovely door and art!
Thanks for stopping by Gordon!
This is brilliant, Teresa, the art work and your photos. I’d love to see it for myself.
You have to come and visit. I am sure my photos donโt do it justice.
Very interesting sculpture. Love the green grass with the path. It’s almost like they are stepping out of their home and have that view. ๐
Yes, definitely looks like it.Thanks for stopping by Lisa.
