Russell McQuilty is a self-taught sculptor, working in steel since 1982. During the 80s he also created utilitarian objects forged from steel, which were shown at Sydney’s well known “Outside In” shop in Paddington. In 1990 Russell became a full time sculptor working on outdoor large scale pieces and miniatures. He has exhibited extensively at Defiance Gallery and participated in group exhibitions throughout Sydney.
