Glove Box

I've had a piece of my art up for sale at an exhibition recently. It didn't attract a buyer. Here's a few pictures and a few words about it; yours for £100.....



Glove Box is a playful yet sardonic commentary on the disposable nature of consumer society, allied to a more profound rumination on the disconnect between human loss and material comfort. The contents of Glove Box are entirely comprised of rehomed, cleansed and nurtured lost and discarded items found by the artist at various locations in Newcastle upon Tyne during 2018. The poignant isolation of single items has been countermanded by the freshly fostered, collective esprit de corps of many, many gloves in union and in safety. The box is locked. The key has been discarded. Or lost…


Mind, I've already got another project in mind for next year; Undersexed Office by Bertie of Shiremoor....

  1. Well I like it! Strapped for cash so not in the market I'm afraid. Suggest a nice tea room as an exhibition space. Hope life's good, F
