About the Item

This abstract tabletop sculpture is by Canadian artist Shayne Dark. Saturated in cerulean—like the colour of a deep blue sky, intersecting lengths of wood form a dramatic sculpture in this abstract piece by Canadian artist, Shayne Dark. From his studio in the countryside, Dark is constantly inspired by his natural surroundings. By using industrial materials, he creates pieces that explore tensions between the urban and the natural world. “Spending time walking in the winter on frozen swamps and wetlands, I observed dead trees that were dying, leaning, and collapsing onto each other. I started to gather natural materials and construct installations that referenced the natural world.” Shayne Dark Inducted into the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts in 2018, Dark has exhibited widely both nationally and internationally. In 2017, Dark had a solo exhibition and an artist residency at New York’s Brooklyn Botanical Garden. The same year, he had a solo exhibition at the Albright Knox, NY. Dark has received six Ontario Arts Council grants and a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant. His work may be found in numerous private, corporate and public collections worldwide.

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...
