| Ed
Harrison is normally associated with Arthurian figures but here he's ringing the changes by paying tribute to trees in general, trees from which he has gratefully derived his basic material for many years. Trees have been felled to make way for houses and roads since Roman times, but as with Juan Carlos Mercurio, they sometimes live on - thanks to sculptors like Ed. This particular tree has buds and acorn-like motifs carved into it, underlining the message that "life goes on". The natural texture is enhanced by ridges and grooves on the surface, giving the tree a new character all of its own. Ed is based in Ceredigion. He has taken part in many symposia and has received many commissions for his work. He has been a frequent visitor to Caerleon. His sculptures adorn the Ffwrwm arts and crafts centre and he took part in last year's Caerleon sculpture symposium. Click here to see Ed's work last year. Text courtesy of Celf Caerleon Arts. |
