This sculpture is made by Charles Gurrey. The sculpture is made of plaster and crystecal and the stand and letters are made of plastic. I noticed that the the artist invented a unique way to demonstrate text. All the letters are in capital letters and are placed on top of each other making it difficult to read what the text says. But I had discovered that the text is actually poetry. “How should we like it were stars to burn with passion for us we cannot return , if equal affection cannot be, let the more loving be me”.

Neil Bottle “All that remains- thirty years in the making”

Neil Bottle uses mixed medias in his work. He uses textiles, digital effects and printing. In Ruthin there was a whole room dedicated to Neil Bottle’s work, even a room of his merchandise. They were very large collages with images of old family photo’s and family heirloom .

This is a photo of his grand mother holding his mother.

Winifred’s Legacy– This photo is precious to the artist because apparently this is the only photograph of his grandmother in this period of her life. She is either 14 or 15 in the picture.
