The Power of Art #7 'Jeff Lowe'

Share

For more than four decades Lowe has been making sculptures. He was taught by the late Sir Anthony Caro, at St. Martins School of Art, and has re-invented his oeuvre time and time again, from his early heavy and slow-moving pieces to his geometrical cage-like monuments. His latest colourful and playful sculptures present a new vernacular.

Lowe creates individual spray-painted sculptural elements, which while in the process of drying he noticed were reminiscent of clothes on washing lines. Welding these individual structures together made them appear like bulky casts, a result he disliked. He then decided to  utilise nuts and bolts, allowing him to craft the delicate forms he envisaged.  Each section is computer drawn and laser-cut, with some patterns being specific while others are random.
