about andrew bell's altars for burning desire
/// ALL HAIL ANDREW BELL'S ALTARS ///
one thing which caught my attention (or rather "3"-things) from Andrew Bell's flickr-set of his Burning Desire show @ Gallery1988 (circa March 4 - or rather, as Bell has mentioned on his flickr: the Mouth and Eyes arrived the day after the show opening :p), was the set of 3 ALTARs - dubbed: SKULL, ALL SEEING and BIG MOUTH = *coolness*
produced by Andrew Bell and HM2K3 Studio - the ALTARs stand 30-inches tall, with a 19.5-inch diameter, are made of fibreflass and weighs approx 30lbs, - with SKULL in an edition of 5-pcs (@US$1200-per) while ALL SEEING and BIG MOUTH are an edition of 3-pcs each (@ US$1400-per) ... very nice pieces of large sculptures (YOU want to be sitting on them! *gasp*) which perhaps would be doable as a mass-product, IMHO ... just don't let it end up as toddler-stools at IKEA or sum-such ... but then again, there really is nothing wrong with that, is there? heh.
- peep here for more details, as well as a gander at Bell's artwork & paintings :)
