Here’s another video made by the people at Lapieza in Madrid. I’m shown drawing a small souvenir Real Madrid football, dismantling it as I draw, cutting the drawings from cardboard and then glueing them to the gallery wall.

Lapieza: Junk
|
28th October – 23rd December 2010 Lapieza. Palma. 15, Malasana, Madrid, Spain.Using the theme “junk” I acquired a pair of old gloves used in a forge to cast artworks for other artists. I’ve drawn those gloves and then started taking them apart, drawing them as they disintegrate. A third piece of work is inspired by a disused old fruit juice carton. |
Photos from Animate Objects #2 exhibition
The Animate Objects #2 exhibition opens tomorrow afternoon. I may add a never-before-seen piece of work, ready for the opening.
Here are a few pictures of the show…
Rucksack drawings
This is my rucksack, one that I carry around with me a lot of the time.
As with my other drawings I used black oil pastel on paper, which I’ve then glued to card and cut-out to give a three-dimensional effect; which I hope brings some of the physical characteristics of objects back to the drawings, otherwise drawings can have a habit of looking rather flat. |
Exhibition: Animate Objects #2
You’re an animate object, a sum of many parts. Just like a rucksack, chair or ladder you can be taken apart. What is it to be an object? Is what something is just the product of its many functions? Life-size drawings in oil pastel on paper and cut-out, dance and show-off the personalities of some of the objects that surround us. The exhibition is at 242 gallery, 242 Cambridge Heath Road, London, E2 9DA. Closest Tube: Bethnal Green. National railway: Cambridge Heath station. View Larger Map |
