BEING ME I
This sculpture goes back to the exploration that started at art college about who I am and my place in the world. It is directly associated with ‘Being Me II’, and indirectly with another sculpture I made at the time called ‘My Space’ but this sculpture is created in vertical sections.
This is the ‘positive’ version, which is just my figure standing alone, and the ‘negative’ version (Being Me II) which is my figure – effectively in a box. The ‘positive’ is cut out of the ‘negative’, so in the negative version there is actually nothing there – it is just the visual traces of what has been cut out.
