Figurative bird series casting in composite resin, steel and timber.
Characters are drawn from select pieces within my sculptural practice, personalities that inhabit a gentle slightly skewed world. Created as a totem for the return to our property lost in the Wooroloo fire our Magpie friend perches on a section of salvaged olive trunk.
From his secluded hilltop studio, Western Australia sculptor and visual storyteller, Andrew Taylor brings to life a tender world of whimsical charters through drawings and situational sculptures.
“My work is driven by emotion and interplay, with simple characters that playfully inhabit a slightly skewed world.
I take inspiration from literacy characters such as Don Quixote and Hamlet set within a contemporary context.
The works capture intimate glimpses, providing the viewer an opportunity to discover and imagine through reflection of their own experience.”
The drawing begins the sculptural process providing scale, composition and an idea of general aesthetic. From a 1:1 scale drawing, measurements are taken as a guide to the completed piece.
Sculptures are created by two methods, original chalk resin, steel, timber and paper clay carvings and limited edition composite castings, individually hand detailed and embellished. The original paper sketch is used in the paper clay.
