For Cure3, Episode 5, Light in the night - The Day of the Triffids is from a series of pieces shown in Bustin's 2019 solo show, 'Blindspot', at Copperfield London. These works evoke the style, themes and aesthetics of John Wyndham's 1951 book 'The Day of the Triffids'. This post-apocalyptic novel describes a world of 'desolation, suicide, blindness and political anarchy'. The unique combination of materials in the work (porcelain, oxides, glaze, Japanese paper, watercolour and beetroot dyed burnt silk) give the sculpture a collage-like ephemeral effect. The quiet, lyrical nature of the work presents us with an ambiguity which is in keeping with Bustin's project of challenging our faith in visual perception. Privileging touch over sight, the work remains, frustratingly, intangible, a quality enhanced by the barrier of the Perspex cube.
