Snare - Shimmer Suite

Sebastian Di Mauro

Artist Statement

Snare is from a larger body of work called Shimmer Suite. Materiality plays a significant role in the conceptual underpinnings of my artwork.

In my works I have eschewed traditionally weighty materials such as steel or bronze in favour of materials that are either industrial or those found in the home.

In Shimmer Suite I have used a common domestic object used to scrub pots to create art. My collective practice explores an interest in the transformation of ordinary objects into something poetic and metaphoric.

Materials

stainless steel pot scourers, aluminium, nylon thread

Dimensions

55 x 45 x 45 cm

Merit

WSSP Winner; Finalist
