Sean Fallon Sculpture

Statement

4th November 10

Sean Fallon’s approach to sculpture can be very spontaneous. Sometimes grasping the nearest thing: a broken electrical appliance or a box of matches & super-glue to quickly sketch a three dimensional idea. Equally a tedious stream of technical experiments & research form the basis for more involved pieces in ceramic & bronze.

Sometimes Sean has been pulled into other disciplines such as design & commissioned work: snarling cats, vases, candles and architectural columns have enabled Sean with a diverse knowledge of materials & processes.

The sculptural work that he continues to exhibit in the UK is loosely based around the figure. Linear & organic forms are assembled in a struggle to defy gravity imbuing his sculptures with a life that is cathartic & dynamic.

Sean is currently working on some glass fibre maquettes that he hopes to show with drawings in the forth-coming open studios.
