Actually I quiet like Martin Boyce's work and I did some researchchThe sculptural work of Martin Boyce refers both to a physical, urban landscape and to a visionary one that is yet to exist. He often borrows from Modernist design history, from archetypes of certain periods that evoke an idea of democratic utopia, from a collective memory of mass-produced design. His core interest is how objects come into the world, the ethos and politics with which they were produced, and what happens to them as they travel through time and space.
ReplyDeleteI like the theme of the 'the last ride' as it portrays adventure and risk taking, very much related to parkour and freerunning which i myself take part in. this also relates to artwork. in my own opinion i like Nick Austins work, as it relates to politics and the withering of humanity through old age.
