Wire Sculptures by Gavin Worth

Posted: 14 Mar 2012 03:28 AM PDT



Gavin Worth, a self-taught artist has done some pretty decent wire sculptures. Gavin first became interested in wire sculpture after seeing an exhibit on Calder at the SFMoma.

By bending black wire into something of freestanding line drawings, I create sculptures that engage the viewer by involving them in their subtle changes. When the light in the room shifts, so does the mood of the piece. A breeze might softly move an arm. My wire sculptures tell stories of simple human moments: a woman adjusting her hair, a face gazing from behind tightly wrapped arms, a mother gently cradling her baby. The honest, unguarded moments are the ones that I find to be the most beautiful.--Gavin Worth
