Stephen Burke's solo exhibition showcases sculptures that intertwine light, colour, and form.
Influenced by his travels through Egypt and the Mediterranean and his life in Barcelona where the visionary works of Gaudi inspired awe and wonder, Stephen’s designs reflect a passion for geometry and symmetry, that incorporate ‘unapologetic’ colour.
His hand-painted plywood sculptures, such as Camouflage and Hope feature reflective acrylic mirrors drawing viewers into infinite depths.
Fabricated acrylic pieces like Out of Blue Comes Green and Danced in the Fire explore the interplay of transparency opacity, and colour, and utilise mirrors for reflective effect, while on the panels of the sculpture Earthsong he layers acrylic paint in a collage format as if to represent leaves or petals.
This exhibition invites contemplation of the balance between structure, form, and colour.
