Terence McGlade
Turbulence No 2 - large, narrative, corten steel, abstract outdoor sculpture

2021

About the Item

"My work explores the relationship between the tyranny of ageing and urban spaces. With influences as diverse as Brancusi and Buckminister Fuller, new synergies are crafted from simple and complex meanings. I have long been fascinated by the theoretical limits of the human condition. What starts out as triumph soon becomes corroded into a manifesto of power, leaving only a sense of dread and the possibility of a new synthesis. As temporal forms become frozen through boundaries, the viewer is left with a hymn to limits of our future."- Terrence McGlade This monumental outdoor sculpture is created out of corten steel. The iconic curls capture the essence of the earth as it rolls through the countryside.

  • Probability Deep Blue 4 - elegant, curved, abstract, glass, wall sculpture
    By John Paul Robinson
    Located in Bloomfield, ON
    John Paul Robinson creates original contemporary wall sculptures from coloured glass that are filled with light. This piece features elegant arched deep blue tubes of glass that are polished to a smooth finish and overlap one another to create a dynamic composition. The Canadian artist often explores themes related to how the world works. This is one of a series intended to represent the dual nature of light as both a particle and a wave. In physics, the wave nature of light is referred to as a "probability wave". “The thickness of the glass and curvature of the lens conspire to create their own optical effect. As your gaze moves across the piece it causes the small grains of coloured glass to shift just a bit. Starry Starry Night...
