Sculpture, Clay on Ceramic

Another two pieces for a chess set. The king is very much a Kaiser with his tall peak cap and double breasted great coat. Very grand. His castle has smoke coming out of the roof however, so things are not going well for him. The surreal square world of Michael Bentine again. I believe the Third Reich liked grand uniforms also, and commissioned Hugo Boss to design them?

France
Apart from a few works in exhibitions most of my time since art school has been in a commercial world. Now living in France I like to make ceramic pieces on a variety of themes.The catastrophe of war or the tragedy of natural disaster for example. The drama of dreams when the mind sorts our life experience into an altogether new tapestry, is another. One beyond the control of the artists hand or eye. I grew up in post war London and try to understand why bomb sites, now gherkins and other weird and wonderful constructions, now surround St. Pauls and the city, Here is where the Luftwaffe dropped their deadly cargo. Now I learn our bombers wrought ten times the destruction on Germany, and Churchill had ordered that St. Pauls should be saved from incendiary bombs with priority over homes. St. Pauls was a symbol of our invincibility. I remember approaching St. Pauls from Fleet Street, bomb sites all around and a railway running overhead. Very strange.
