Richard Clegg is one of our ‘secret artists’ and his work is probably best known amongst the artist fraternity of London. He is a sculptor of the builder and craftsman lineage, an artist who performs and has his artwork performing for his audience, never afraid of fire and brimstone, smoke and mirrors. He uses materials that appear from nowhere, reinvents them into improvised constructions that never fail to entertain, surprise or sometimes even shock.
His work for Cure3 is an appropriate quiet moment for this artist, which is both poetic but full of metaphors and hope – he says “This model was made in response to reimagining a wisteria that had grown into a tree (and would soon need to be cut down) as a full size garden pergola constructed using oak. I thought an angular geometry of wood imitating the locked branches of the tree with new climbing plants such as clematis or honeysuckle, would replace the original tree with a type of living sculpture.”
