It was erected in cooperation with the Amt Lieberose \/ Oberspreewald in the waters of Schwielochsee at the Leichhardtstrand in Goyatz \/ Brandenburg in 2013, as part of the bicentennial celebrations of Leichhardt\u2019s birth.<br \/>\nThe memorial is made of glass, stainless-steel and bronze. On the glass I have incorporated excerpts from Leichhardt\u2019s Journal An Overland Expedition in Australia, from Moreton Bay to Port Essington, a Distance of Upwards of 3000 Miles, During the Years 1844-1845, dealing with his constant struggles during the course of his first successful expedition. The bronze eucalyptus and banksia leaves in the two smaller open sections of the stele symbolise Leichhardt\u2019s botanical collection.<br \/>\nMy approach to the historical figure of Leichhardt is not a scholarly but rather an emotional one. I am interested in the inner forces that drive people to leave their homes and face extremes. Many others of that era, including my great-grandmother, who travelled from Hamburg as a girl with her family for Australia in 1845, left civilisation to pursue personal goals or dreams under very harsh conditions in strange and distant lands.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-291 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/suehayward.de\/en\/public-art\/leichhardt1\/'><img width=\"224\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt1-224x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Ludwig Leichhardt Memorial\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt1-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt1.jpg 598w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/suehayward.de\/en\/public-art\/leichhardt8\/'><img width=\"266\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt8-266x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Ludwig Leichhardt Memorial\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt8-266x300.jpg 266w, https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt8.jpg 708w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 266px) 100vw, 266px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/suehayward.de\/en\/public-art\/leichhardt5\/'><img width=\"172\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt5-172x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Ludwig Leichhardt Memorial\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt5-172x300.jpg 172w, https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt5.jpg 458w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 172px) 100vw, 172px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/suehayward.de\/en\/public-art\/leichhardt3\/'><img width=\"393\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt3-393x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Ludwig Leichhardt Memorial\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt3-393x300.jpg 393w, https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt3-768x587.jpg 768w, https:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/leichhardt3.jpg 1047w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 393px) 100vw, 393px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Press articles<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/leichhardtland.net.au\/home\/reports-from-germany\/leichhardt-in-glass\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;Leichhardt in glass&#8221; (www.leichhardtland.net.au)<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rbb-online.de\/brandenburgaktuell\/archiv\/20131020_1930\/durch-die-woche-sue-hayward.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;Durch die Woche mit: Sue Hayward&#8221;, Fernsehbericht des RBB, 20.10.2013<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/suehayward.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/luebbener_rundschau.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;K\u00fcnstlerin ehrt Leichhardt mit Stele&#8221;, L\u00fcbbener Rundschau, 23.5.2013<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.moz.de\/artikel-ansicht\/dg\/0\/1\/1139242\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;Leichhardt-Stele wird am Seeufer errichtet&#8221;, M\u00e4rkische Oderzeitung, 23.4.2013<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stk.brandenburg.de\/sixcms\/detail.php\/bb1.c.328594.de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;Platzeck und Vogels\u00e4nger unterst\u00fctzen Denkmal f\u00fcr Australienforscher Leichhardt am\u00a0Schwielochsee&#8221;, Staatskanzlei Brandenburg, 22.04.2013 <\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>More about Ludwig Leichhardt at: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.leichhardtland.de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.leichhardtland.de<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ludwig Leichhardt Memorial Ludwig Leichhardt Memorial, 2013, antique-glass laminated on safety-glass, stainless-steel, bronze, 370cm (from the water-surface) x 30 cm x 12cm.
