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 2 months of 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 proposed intention of casting in traditionally patinated bronze, perhaps wall hung (without bottles and glasses) presenting it as a contemporary ancient artefact.
