To order please read the following:

 

This site will show two basic types of items for sale.

 

1.   Repeatable work; greetings cards, prints etc. These will be stocked in quantity and can generally be ordered without fear of them being out of stock - just use the ‘PayPal - Add Item to Cart’ button which will be provided.

 

2.   The original pieces we exhibit. These, naturally, are unique and when they are gone they are gone (though you can usually re-commission, or commission something else). Rather than order a work, only to find you missed it by minutes, we request that you click on the ‘Request Order Details’ button below and fill in the request form provided. *NOTE - you will need to know the Catalogue Nos. and Name of the works that interest you - so the form opens in a new window to allow to to refer to this page.

* Sending this initial email enquiry does not commit you to anything *

 

We will then email you back confirming that the work is available (or otherwise) and quote you a price, which will be the cost of the item (or items) plus a post and packaging cost calculated for your unique order. We will also inform you how long we can hold this item for you and provide a larger picture of the piece(s) if available.

 

If you wish to purchase it (or them) just confirm this email to be your offer and we will immediately forward you a second email telling you how to pay. This will be through the safety of an independent third party (PayPal) and you will not need a PayPal account to proceed - just a debit or credit card.

I hope this note has been of use. Please click the button here

 

Pay with your Debit or Credit Card or PayPal account We never even see your card details or hold them here - we use PayPal, the experts - but, due to the way authorisation takes place, we can only deliver to the address entered at the PayPal payment screen.

Shadow Revolution is a play on the two meanings of the word ‘Revolution’.

 

Firstly, it is simply a ‘circle’ of nine  increasingly tall standing figures, each facing inwards (inspired by Boccioni’s Unique Forms of Continuity in Space) which almost appear to be dancing - a ‘revolution’*.

 

(* Hover your mouse over the image to see another view).

 

Secondly, the ‘revolution’ is in the shadows themselves.

 

The figures, solid white on one face but showing the permanent effect of a shadow on the other are an attempt to create a solid simulacrum inspired by a transient object (i.e. the absence of light - a shadow) further breaking with the rules of reality by creating them at all angles to each other and with no regard to the direction of incoming light.

 

So these shadows (like the shadows in SCULP0003-CRITICAL MASS) exist in themselves, without light to cast them. They are a permanent feature and, to emphasise this, they actually leak over the edge of the frame they stand on.
