Tony Cragg

Early Form, 2012, Bronze, 102 x 105 x 120 cm, Lissin Gallery, London

Smooth organic surfaces blend  and pile shapes together into community.  Soft pleasing colored pieces fall on top of each other into a harmonious globe.   The pieces ooze in and out of the sphere in gentle organic shapes making the viewer question what kind of secrets exist on the inside.

Tony Cragg's sculptors use found material and everyday material including wood, glass, bronze, plastic and metal.  The sculpture’s meaning evolves from the nature of the material being used.  He speaks about the pieces as entities that develop their own being meaning as they are created.  Starting with a drawing he then experiments with the materials.
