Black Lemon - Elliot Walker

by Elliot Walker

£550.00

My still life series has been an exploration of glass, interpreting the inside of fruits whilst using the profiles of other objects to create a familiar context and format.

This series utilises both blown and hot sculpted glass, as well and cold processing of dissected elements to create a narrative scene full of contrast and intrigue.

These small compositions are beautifully compact variations on this series.

They stay true to my original vision and are great collection pieces.

In Walkers own words

‘The inspiration for my sculpture come mainly from traditional arts and sculpture, including still life painting and the ability of glass to trick and subvert the viewers visual and tactile experience.

I want to make people ask themselves questions when they see my work, can I eat that? Will it spill? Is it soft or hard, light or heavy?

I am a dedicated experimenter with my chosen material and am constantly trying to challenge myself and the audiences of my work to abandon many preconceptions of the material.

My sculptural style would be considered figurative as I do attempt to accurately represent my subject of interest, but my use of glass as a material is always at the heart of my conceptual focus and creates an ambiguity or surrealism in the works. Can I eat this fruit? Can I use this chair?’

Please note each glass fruit is unique and made to order. The glass art piece will be marginally different from the piece in the photograph. I can send images before the item is despatched.
