Denver Maloney (Melbourne VIC)
Sculptor / Installation Artist

Denver is a sculptor and installation artist with a difference!

He first developed a liking for sculpture and made some pieces out of clay as a youngster in primary school. In later years he became a dentist, as he saw this as an opportunity to express his artistic skill by creating beautiful smiles in people, thereby displaying his art in living form in the human anatomy.

Today Denver runs a cosmetic dental practice in Victoria, and provides beautiful smiles for many people who would otherwise cover their smile with their hands due to the poor form or colour of their teeth.

For the past two years he has been developing a large scale outdoor sculpture / installation piece to capture the beauty, strength and culture associated with human teeth and smiles. He started the construction of what he calls the official home in Australia of the "Tooth Fairy." The installation is a work in progress that he contributes to between his busy surgical practice.

As well as working on his ever growing installation, Denver paints. He has no formal training, but often visits exhibitions and displays of sculpture whenever the opportunity arises, and displays his work in his surgery.
