Keeping On was inspired by diving over coral reefs.
It was made with metal armature, found objects, plaster, wax, tissue paper. The damp plaster mixed with the coloured tissue paper which changed the colour of the plaster. Over several weeks the rainbow coral sculpture intensified in colour and a silhouette appeared on the floor around it.
Keeping On
“Semi-theatrical constructions grow out of the combined force of time, material and pretence. The relationship between weight, lightness and dramatic effect is where the presence temporarily resides”
