Aaron McPeake - Iceland Topography

£1,950.00

Bell bronze
49 x 37 cm
2011

Aaron works as a sculptor and filmmaker with sound at the centre of his practice. His sculptural works are designed to be physically interacted with meaning that there is a multisensory engagement. This he argues provides added agency and meaning for beholders. Having lost much of his visual acuity at the beginning of the century, this situation has informed his artwork, research and methods of practice. He sees in detail at two metres, what most people see at sixty. However, the importance of sound, touch and smell are not elements that are intended to replace the importance of the visual in his work but rather to add to it, providing a more complete experience. The senses work in concert and not in isolation. He has exhibited widely nationally and internationally and has completed a number of public sculpture commissions.
