These sculptures i had done in the second year of my course in collaboration with Holywells park in Ipswich.
It was a very interesting work, subject.
When i was fronted with the duty to find someone, i was honestly a little bit scared about, but i was starting to think, what i could do for my collaboration, and then i had to visit a friend, but i went through Holywells park in the direction of nacton road (Ipswich) and i start to think, why not to make something in the park, and the idea of doing some sculptures, reach my brain, and when i was home i start to do my exploration in what it could be done in the park. Must be something to create or provoke the curiosity of the park visitants, and i start to make research in David Nash, Henry Moore, Nicholas Pope
This is one of the artworks i was looking to reach my intentions, and clarify my context. And could be visible what i intent to do.
I will try to show in one movie how interesting and funny it was the process of carving, and all the Historical involvement, as I create with this sculptures something about History and the Gods from different cultures, like the Roman Gods, the Greek mythology, and as well the Mayas Gods to, when i decided to call each one of the sculptures as a monthly name but in Latin, i or better my intention it was to create something to catch the curiosity of the viewer, and to bring something with interest to the park, but now i will tell more about in the video.
Also a few photos from my installation at Holywells park, it was very funny.
After this i only need now at the present to finish the new names, because somebody stolen, i think four names and i had to done a more safe names otherwise i will be there every month. But now they look better and ready for the big opening , and that must be around July.
Also i show here all of then but in an individual perspective.
And from this post i think there are not so much thinks to say, only i will add a new video from the sculptures already installed, i hope also this post it was enough to reach my aim.
Perhaps there will be a few issues on the video but accept my apologies.
