The year 2016 marks the 20th anniversary of the Sculpture by the Sea exhibition.
The free exhibition, which is held in late October and early November each year, features more than 100 artworks by Australian and international artists in a temporary sculpture park along the 2km coastal walk from Bondi Beach to Tamarama Beach.
The three-week event is the world's largest sculpture exhibition held outdoors and draws more than 500,000 visitors to Sydney for the event.
Below is a selection of the work featured in this year's exhibition.
