About the Item
Simply stunning. They shine like jewels…This is Shayne Dark’s Reflections of Nature Series. Dark’s superb sculptural work is informed by nature. This series of wall sculptures—tondos in stainless steel, copper and bronze have detailed inlays that resemble natural organic patterns such as the inner ring of trees, and root structures. (The number of rings in a tree determines its age and what the climate was like during each year of the tree’s life.)
Each tondo has a unique pattern that Dark cuts into the steel. The entire surface is then sprayed with molten copper and bronze to create a shimmering inlay. The whole sculpture is then polished back to a mirror finish which reflects light and its surroundings.
“Dark seeks to reveal the inner beauty of the things around us with the aim of fostering a direct contemplation of the world, without the mediation of the artistic sphere.” Katrie Chagnon, Art Historian
He was the artist in residence at the Brooklyn botanic garden in 2016 following a successful residency at the Albright Knox and Buffalo botanical garden in 2015 and a feature article on his work in Sculpture magazine. At Art Basel in Toronto, Dark was named one of the top ten artists to watch. In 2017, Dark had a solo exhibition at New York’s Brooklyn Botanical Garden and the following year he was inducted into the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts. In 2022, Dark exhibited at the Cloud 9 Eco-Art Festival at No. 9 Gardens in the Rideau Lakes, Ontario. His work can be found in numerous private, corporate, and public collections.

Shayne Dark
Poised between abstraction and representation, the artworks of Canadian artist Shayne Dark (b. 1952, Moose Jaw, SK) are often coated in eye-popping saturated pigments. His networks of steel branches or steel stones, indoor and outdoor iterations, are a contemplative intersection of the industrial and the organic. In 2016, Dark exhibited at the Brooklyn Sculpture Center, where he was artist in residence. The same year, he was given 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 including Queen’s University, the Canadian Embassy in Prague, the City of Ottawa, the Federal Communications Commission, New York.

Maelstrom Series No 3 - layered, intersecting, forged aluminum wall sculpture
By Shayne Dark
Located in Bloomfield, ON
Canadian sculptor Shayne Dark creates uniquely beautiful abstract pieces often inspired by nature. This new series called Maelstrom (a whirlpool in a sea or river) is a nod to the tumultuous times experienced by the world over the last two years. This arresting wall sculpture in celery green is hand forged from a series of small round aluminum rods layered in a circular wreath-like form. The dynamic energy of this piece is so palpable it almost appears to be in motion.
“In my studio, I had a forced solitude with no interruptions, giving me plenty of time...
