Will Budgett
Tiny Dancers V - figurative resin & light sculpture - contemporary artwork

2025

About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Edition 1/11, Resin & Light This sculpture by Will Budgett casts a striking shadow of two dancers when illuminated. The transparency of the resin contrasts with the solid, defined shadows it produces on the wall. The shadow forms, captured in fluid motion, appear more tangible than the sculpture itself, creating an intriguing dynamic between the ethereal material and its solid counterpart. Complete with lights and base installation, this piece showcases the dancers in perfect harmony, their shadows moving with elegance and grace, as if performing a duet. The delicate texture of the clear resin paired with a soft bronze accent enhances the illusion of weightless movement, while the shadows remain bold and unwavering. Artist Biography: Will Budgett's work delves into the dynamic interplay between light and shadow. His abstract sculptures, when illuminated by multiple lights, cast shadows that reveal recognizable forms, creating a striking contrast. The raw, brutal nature of his sculptures is softened by the graceful, fluid shadows they cast, exploring the relationship between what is visible and what remains concealed within an object. In his creations, light serves not only as a tool but as a storyteller, revealing and hiding the stillness and motion within each piece. A self-taught sculptor, Will’s background in design and advertising has shaped his ability to blend physical and allegorical elements in his work. He created his first shadow sculpture at the age of 17, and by 18, his work was featured at the Saatchi Gallery. Since then, his shadow sculptures have been exhibited internationally, from prestigious venues such as The Natural History Museum and Chelsea Town Hall to exhibitions as far as Kyrgyzstan and New Zealand. Will's work seeks to illuminate the forgotten and overlooked spaces in our lives, transforming them into captivating focal points—whether in a room, a garden, or a gallery. Explore the captivating abstract sculpture installations by Will Budgett, thoughtfully selected and curated at Signet Contemporary Art. Available for sale both in our London gallery and online, each piece showcases Will's extraordinary talent and distinctive artistic vision. Immerse yourself in the beauty of these remarkable works.

Tiny Dancer III - figurative bronze sculpture - contemporary artworks for sale
Located in London, Chelsea
Limited Edition of 11, Bronze & Bronze Mesh This abstract sculpture by Will Budgett creates a stunning shadow of a ballerina on the wall when illuminated. It comes complete with a light and base installation and remote control Off\On, as shown in the image, allowing the interplay of light and shadow to bring the artwork to life. The sculpture's clever design results in two shadowy figures, one gracefully mirrored on the right and the other on the left, as if two dancers are performing a duet in perfect harmony. Crafted from bronze and bronze mesh, the materials evoke a sense of strength and delicacy, capturing both the weight and the lightness of the dancers' movements. The dark metallic finish enhances the sculpture’s modern, industrial feel while the intricate mesh work adds a touch of softness, as though the figures could dissolve into air at any moment. The contrast between the solid sculpture and its fluid shadows creates a dynamic, ever-changing piece, where light is as much a part of the artwork as the bronze itself. Signed by the artist and ready to display, Tiny Dancers III offers a captivating addition to any space, bringing elegance, motion, and abstract beauty to the room. The sculpture is currently available for purchase at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea, as well as through their online platform.
