Brendon Murless
I create sculptures for both indoor and outdoor settings, which range from small mantlepiece sized to large scale garden sculptures. I take inspiration from the human form, looking at the complexities of what makes us human physically and emotionally. I portray this by exploring the body in different forms, poses and materials. My sculptures are either unique pieces or are limited editions and combine the understanding, knowledge and love of a vast range of materials and techniques in bronze, copper, wood, stone and resins. For each piece of new work I start with an idea, but am open to continual exploration of materials to marry them with the desired form. The material informs the shape and finish that the final piece takes. After my studies in visual arts and 3D design I continue to developed my passion and knowledge of sculpture, material and the human form. Over the years I have secured a wide variety of commissions from private and public clients , with work in galleries and collections across the country.
