Wycliffe Stutchbury IV

The 'Thread' exhibition featuring some of Wycliffe Stutchbury’s works is running at Sarah Myerscough Gallery, London until May 16th.

 Wycliffe Stutchbury’s works are composed via the meticulous placement of wooden tiles, processed from fallen trees or disused architecture, timber shingles sourced from a coastal town in Maine, discarded field fencing, fallen bog oak found in Norfolk fens or felled holly from Abergavenny. The used local wood absorbs, mutates and bear traces of its environment and renders each work reflective of geographic specificity. 

A result of changeable weather systems and the artist’s editorial impulse. In such a way, the works evoke surfaces found in architecture. As exterior walls, roofs and structures are weathered via elemental interactions, so too are his pieces. Simultaneously, as gravity acts upon his compositions, they drape and fall mimicking textile. Thus embedded within the works are paradoxes between exterior and interior, fragility and endurance.
