Tiny Artist Box Worlds
Even in this show-and-tell all age, the world of the Artist remains seductive, magical, and often mysterious. “The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web.” - Pablo Picasso
This is a collection-in-progress, where I will be working in collaboration with artists to make tiny portraits of them in their element.

Since I met Ralph long long ago, I've been astounded by his singular drive to create. From those heady days of The Brick Lane Synchronised Swimming Team sculptures, to his current huge format de/reconstruction of 21st century thought and events, Ralph manages to strike a brilliant balance between seriousness and silliness.
