You can see from my last 3 projects i have been looking at mental health.. mainly mine..From the many layers of my personality, which i guess took some inspiration from Tony Cragg.Tony Cragg is a British visual artist specialized in sculpture....
There is this idea that sculpture is static, or maybe even dead, but I feel absolutely contrary to that. I’m not a religious person—I’m an absolute materialist—and for me material is exciting and ultimately sublime. When I’m involved in making sculpture, I’m looking for a system of belief or ethics in the material. I want that material to have a dynamic, to push and move and grow."
My boxed piece which looked at lithium and the fact my superhero me is hung to dry.
Joseph Cornell (December 24, 1903 – December 29, 1972) was an American artist and sculptor, one of the pioneers and most celebrated exponents of assemblage. Influenced by the Surrealists,
Shadow boxes become poetic theater or settings wherein are metamorphosed the elements of a childhood pastime. The fragile, shimmering globules become the shimmering but more enduring planets—a connotation of moon and tides—the association of water less subtle, as when driftwood pieces make up a proscenium to set off the dazzling white of sea foam and billowy cloud crystallized in a pipe of fancy."
he was also an avant-garde experimental filmmaker. which lead me to looking towards video to get my point across... whether i will continue i am not sure, i like to build things.
I am hoping to cast my face next and then vacum form it, to experiment with different moulding
