Traces V by Oliver Ashworth-Martin - Concrete sculpture, abstract, nature, seed

2018

About the Item

Traces V is a unique concrete sculpture by contemporary English sculptor Oliver Ashworth-Martin, dimensions are 26 × 13 × 13 cm (10.2 × 5.1 × 5.1 in). This sculpture is signed by the artist and comes with a certificate of authenticity. Australian flora is known for its seed pods, which are a prominent feature of the sculptures in the "Traces" series. After being poured into concrete, these seedpods are burned. Fossilised imprinted shapes from the fire are still visible. The industrial material has distinct traces left by the natural resin and carbon. Oliver Ashworth-Martin often includes natural elements in his drawings and sculptures, taking inspiration from the diversity and vastness of Australian vegetation. Mathematical harmony of patterns and richness of shapes and textures are revealed by him through abstraction, magnification, or contrast with inorganic materials (like metal). His explanations provide viewers with a fresh perspective on their surroundings.

  • Stand-Ins for Period of Wreckage 25
    By Theaster Gates
    Located in Palm Desert, CA
    A sculpture by Theaster Gates. "Stand-Ins for Period of Wreckage 25" is a contemporary sculpture, white concrete and porcelain by American, Blue Chip artist Theaster Gates. The artwork is unsigned. Theaster Gates' practice includes sculpture, installation, performance and urban interventions that aim to bridge the gap between art and life. Gates works as an artist, curator, urbanist and facilitator and his projects attempt to instigate the creation of cultural communities by acting as catalysts for social engagement that leads to political and spatial change. Gates has described his working method as “critique through collaboration” – often with architects, researchers and performers – to create works that stretch the idea of what we usually understand visual-based practices to be. For his exhibition at Milwaukee Art Museum exhibition in 2010, for example, Gates invited a 250 strong gospel choir into the galleries to sing songs adapted from the inscriptions on pots by the famous 19th century slave and potter 'Dave Drake'. For the 2010 Whitney Biennial, Gates transformed the Whitney’s Sculpture Court with a spare, architectural installation that functioned as a communal gathering space for performances, social engagement, and contemplation. For the duration of the exhibition Gates collaborated with various creative practitioners on a series of 'monastic residencies', holding live events such as the session by Gates' musical ensemble, the Black Monks of Mississippi. In another recent exhibition at Seattle Art Museum, Gates transformed the gallery into an audio archive entitled 'The Listening Room', incorporating a hand-built DJ...
