The Mask of Sanity

this is the place dreams will shatter...

I was born on the day of contentious conviviality. They call me Barbara. I'm an artist of sorts. I love ridiculous things and I hang out with my cat.

claresophiet: Tim Noble and Sue Webster take ordinary objects - like rubbish - to make sculptures which really don’t look like anything. The magic happens when they point a light at them and project the shadows onto the walls. The process of transformations, from trash to recognisable forms, echoes the idea of perceptual psychology - a form of evaluation used for psychological patients. Noble and Webster have repeatedly played with the idea of how humans perceive abstract images and define them with a meaning. The result is surprisingly powerful, redefining how abstract forms can transform into figurative ones. Click through on the image for a link to their website.

By Anna-Wili Highfield, these sculptures are all made from torn paper strips and coloured/painted sections carefully selected to match the animals colourings. I really love the panda, it’s just so simple and beautiful and the really rough little knots from the stitches holding it all together make it even better.
