Those Long Hot Summers, 2016

Madi Acharya-Baskerville

This work is created using a found plastic table which accidentally got burned during a summer evening. The use of vintage fabric echoes the kind of covering which may have previously covered such an object when it functioned as a piece of furniture. I wanted to create a dialogue between natural and manufactured materials suggesting an apparent continuity between the disparate textures and materials so that pre-exiting boundaries become fused and appear as one.

Medium: Sculpture
Materials: Found Charred Plastic, Found Wood, Vintage Fabric, Acrylic Paint
Dimensions: W60cm x H120cm x D 40cm (irregular)

The Flesh of the World 3, 2015

Simon Hitchens

This resin sculpture is part of a series titled 'The Flesh of the World', where the displaced rock casts have become almost body-like, zoomorphic re-formations that take on living qualities, transcending their geological origins. They are cave-like voids suggestive of internal and intimate body spaces: flesh or growing matter, searching out new life.
