罗安杰 Andrew Orloski

在最近的作品中,我充满好奇心地观察平凡生活,特别是日常生活中常常被我们忽视的物品,以此探讨纪念主义、平庸的意义。在创作过程中,使用传统和当代的多种铸模技术,借助材料改变物品的形态。在作品中,我喜欢特意制造出短暂和永恒之间的对话。那些根植于历史和经济的工业材料,比如金属、玻璃、水泥和石膏,是我创作的灵魂,经过浇筑、组装、焊接和修饰,重量与平衡成为作品的一大主题。
My current work explores notions of monumentalism and banality with an inquisitive look at mundane, often overlooked objects we surround ourselves with daily. My process utilizes a variety of traditional and contemporary mold making techniques, which aid in the transformation of objects through materiality. I am especially engaged in creating work that crafts narratives between the ephemeral and permanent. Industrial materials such as metals, glass, concrete and gypsum are essential to my process because of their deep roots in history and economy and can be cast, fabricated, welded and modified to allow weight and balance to work as subject matter.
