Richard Clegg
Richard Clegg makes resin casts of easels, keys, brushes and other cast aside objects. Their physical nature is both rediscovered and undermined, and the use of colour gives the objects a magical quality. Their transformation retains their essence but renders them both functionless and more meaningful. Their context and relationships to us are changed creating a dialogue between what is alien and familiar.
