Hello World

Boring, boring boring boring.....

 

Black Angel

This is a representation of part of a dream. The moment before flight, when I dream fly there is always a moment where my feet are still supporting me, when my head stretches forward and I lean out. This is that moment of anticipation. This piece was created in responce to a college brief and is one of my favourite pieces. the expression that came out on the faces has brought so many different responses for people, particularly when I used it on my old stall on Armstrong Bridge. The large one is called Eric and his new little brother is called Henry Huffington for no particular reason.

 

Obelisks

These pieces are developements from another piece entitled "Honesty". The name reflects it's form, an antithesis of the usual male oriented Obelisk. Obelisks are traditionally phallic monuments, I wanted a feminine version, rounded instead of pointy and with a hole (*Grin*). I also wanted to create a piece one could handle, where touch instead of sight was of significance. So feel free to fondle these ones, but please be very careful, remember, you break it, you bought it.

 

Knots

These are what my Maths brain has been coming up with for the last year. Knots are a concept from Topology, a branch of Mathematics. I'm fascinated by them, but I won't bore you. All the same, just imagine that they're as interesting forms in Mathematics as they are as sculpture and you'll not be too far from the truth. Many people these days despise Mathematics and it's such a shame as there is so much beauty there.

 

Cyclone

This piece has a long and overly complex story behind it. Enjoy.

Spheres

A print of an early work as an exercise in reflection.

 

Hyperspace

By Shinju. See upstairs for the rest of the exhibition, open Wed, 5pm - 9pm. Although if you ask the staff very nicely they may oblige during quiet periods

 

Dark

Well everyone's got to have a dark side, but its worth being completely open about how it's manifested.

 

Hex

These four panels show how the world looks to me, our view of the world is filtered through our perspective, we fill up our perceptions with how we think the world is and ignore what is truly out there. The trouble comes when working out which is which, what can seem to be reality is often our filters and vice versa.

 

Self Portrait

Yes it really is me, well sort of. Perception is an odd thing you know. Sometimes the things we see are not what we think we see. Our own perspective has an effect on the world around us. Learn to deal with it, and use it to help you create the world around you in a manner which pleases you.
