Description
Additional Info.

Campbell has spent several months working on the developing garden behind The Whitaker, reusing and transforming found objects into sculpture and site-specific installation. He will take these objects, mostly constructed from stone and embellished with copper and re present them in the gallery setting.

Campbell seeks to explore the value of space, materials and offer a contrast between the heavy, earthy materials, literally dragged out of the soil, and the pristine white gallery space.

The work will attempt to explore pattern in environmental chaos, from starling murmuration to glistening slug trail, weather charts to woodlouse.

With a combination of damp moss, oil paint, copper, cold stone and warm light, Campbell’s sculpture will reflect light and fill the gallery with weight and kinetic balance.

The positioning of Gallery One is no random accident, the whole of The Whitaker building is placed on the hillside to capture the sun and shelter from the rain. This installation will give a nod to the Victorian architects that put us here- right here, from within our shell.
