I was excited to be asked by Granta Magazine to create the cover for their latest issue, titled ‘Animalia’. Granta is the world’s longest running literary magazine and some of my very favourite artists have graced its cover over the years, so it was a thrill to be asked!
This work is titled 'Drone' and was shot in Canada Water, London.
On January 25th I am releasing a limited number signed prints, from an original edition of 15, featuring photography of my installation Rising Mountain. This miniature mountain sculpture was created and installed in the city of Annecy, France, for the Deambule Festival Des Paysages 2017, an annual sculpture festival.
Each print comes signed, numbered and titled. Also included is a special signed booklet featuring behind-the-scenes production sketches and photographs documenting the sculpture's creation, alongside a signed copy of the mapproduced for the festival.
My first pin has just been released! Now is your chance to own your own little person, designed to interact with your clothes! Pin him to your shirt pocket and watch as he clings helplessly to your boob! Pin him on your briefs and laugh as he precariously hangs from your junk! Or perhaps pin him to your bag and cross an international border, thus making you a trafficker of little people and him an illegal immigrant! There is no end to the places you can pin this desperate little man!
You can see my new 'large scale' sculpture right now on the streets of Annecy, France. The installation takes the form of a miniature mountain, pushing up through the asphalt and reclaiming Annecy, an offspring of the real mountains that surround the city.
Created as part of the city-wide sculpture festival Déambule Festival des Paysages (Wanderers Festival of Landscapes, the installation is viewable from 8th July - 1st October 2017. Go check it out, alongside many other artists' installations around the city.
You can see more images of the installation here.
