Education
Education
Born in Melbourne, Australia, Irving was formally educated at the Melbourne State College (1979–1982) where she undertook a Bachelor of Education (Art/Craft). She exhibited in a student show The Sentiment is Genuine, in 1981 the College's Gryphon Gallery. Irving's Master of Arts by Research The Angel Imagery of Arthur Boyd, John Perceval and Mirka Mora undertaken at the Melbourne College of Advanced Education (1984-1989) was supervised by ceramicist and Head of Ceramics Department Professor Noel John Flood. Irving was one of the first two candidates to be approved to undertake the Master of Arts Degree in Visual Arts in the Melbourne CAE. Her thesis examined:...reasons and meaning behind the presence and mythology imagery in the works of Arthur Boyd, John Perceval and Mirka Mora (those artists being nominated because of the relevance to my own work). During her Masters candidature Irving participated in 24 group shows and presented 3 solo exhibitions, nationally and abroad.
Notable work
Notable work
• Illustration — The second bronze statue of Larry La Trobe, Melbourne City Square, created by Pamela Irving Irving's most famous work is the bronze sculpture of Larry La Trobe, commissioned in 1992 as a part of the Swanston Street redevelopment in Melbourne, and stolen by a thief or thieves unknown during 1995. The resulting media attention rallied significant public support for the recovery of the sculpture. Although never retrieved, the statue was recast by the foundry owner, Peter Kolliner, with some minor changes by Irving and was replaced in September 1996. The Larry sculpture is located at the corner of Swanston Street and Collins Street, Melbourne. 'Happy as Larry' was the brand applied to homewares and objets d'art by Irving and Toula Ikonomou which was launched in November 1998 at Bulle Galleries, 96 Flinders Street, Melbourne Another notable commission is a large mosaic mural covering the Luna Palace building inside Melbourne's Luna Park. This large scale public artwork was commissioned for the centenary of Luna Park and took four years to complete.

Style and influences
Style and influences
Irving's early art was influenced by artists including Arthur Boyd, John Brack, Noel Connihan, Mirka Mora, Sidney Nolan and John Perceval. In recent years, Irving has been influenced ″by the honest and direct expressiveness of ‘outsider art’ (the art of self-taught or 'naive artists') and the craft of 'memoryware'″ Significantly, this interest grew following Irving's visit to Nek Chand's Rock Garden in Chandigarh, India.
Critical reception
Critical reception
Pascoe observes that Irving's work is derived from "a mixture of personal experience, myth and virulent imagination." A reviewer notes of her 1991 Blaxland Gallery joint exhibition with painter Adrienne Lourie, how: "myths and conventional notions of marriage are critically but humorously challenged through the... the ceramics of Pamela Irving...under the theme, The Bride Stripped Bare. Hammond has described Irving's early ceramic work as 'humorous, figurative and cheerfully contemptuous of pottery traditions. Leigh Astbury, whose 1998 essay 'The Dog in Australian Art' in Art + Australia, writes that "Regardless of the scepticism of the art cognoscenti, statues of dogs continue to serve as important symbols for local communities, especially where they can suggest links with a pioneering past. [...one...] is the mythological little mutt, Larry La Trobe, 1992 (and 1996), which Pamela Irving created in bronze for Melbourne’s City Square. But the popular Larry La Trobe also derives from the folklore tradition, as Irving explains: ‘It relates to all the stories about Australia, the poetry, the books and so on... The Drover’s Dog and The Dog on the Tucker Box. My work is a bit off-beat, whimsical, funky kind of stuff anyway."
