After (Party)
Silicone, bottles and glasses, 2022

52cm w x 30cm d x 3cm h

Inspired in part from attending crowded private views where wine glasses are inevitably placed perilously close to a sculpture or installation and an interest in the still life genre in art history.

After curing, with the glasses and bottles removed, impressions are left of the undersides. The looping, coiling and bending line-work an echo of the alcohol-tinted experience of the night.

This work is also made with the possible outcome of casting in traditionally patinated bronze, perhaps wall hung (without bottles and glasses) presenting it as a contemporary ancient artefact.
