Displaced by Kevin Grey

Object  /  Geometric
 
Bronze sheets have been cut into individual panels which are TIG-welded together to create a hollow circular band with high-relief jagged edges. The technique is inspired by the artist’s background in car manufacturing and design. Created without a preparatory sketch or drawing, the angle of each opposing panel has been decided intuitively, and the resulting undulating edges give the work a sense of constant movement. The jagged edges of the work represent the hostility faced by displaced people around the world and the base only partially touches the surface it is placed on, allowing pockets of light to stream through.
