Australian Farmer, Granite sculpture in Wudinna, Australia
The 8-meter-tall granite sculpture depicts a farmer figure with carved elements of sheep and grain, weighing 70 tons and standing along the Eyre Highway.
The project originated in 1992 when the Wudinna community initiated plans to create a memorial for early settlers, leading to its completion in 2009.
The sculpture represents the determination of rural Australian farming communities through the integration of agricultural symbols and human form elements.
Visitors can access free parking facilities and a dedicated picnic area next to the sculpture, which stands at the edge of Wudinna township.
The base of the sculpture incorporates carved sheep figures that, when viewed from a distance, form the feet of the farmer figure.
