An
abstract work in which you can see all sorts of images in the twisting curves of the wood. Giles has scorched some areas to emphasise the curves and make them stand out, adopting the techniques of artists who draw in charcoal and pencil. Giles believes in organic subject matter and his work is usually placed in a natural setting-particularly against trees. He tries to create a sense of movement upwards. Born 1967, Giles is a fine art graduate of the University of East London. He has held residencies in Cumbria and Kent, has carried out numerous commissions and his work is in private and public spaces in the UK, Sweden and Canada. Solo exhibitions have included one at the Royal Society of British Sculptors in London. He creates sculptures from wood that enhance and elaborate on its natural properties.
