YOUR LIFE Sculpture

Andy Willett Born in Stoke on Trent , England. I live and work in my home studio in Rugby, Warwickshire. Graduated with BA (1st Class Honours Degree) in Fine Art , Coventry University School of Art and Design 2008 Graduated with MA (Distinction) in Contemporary Art Practice , Coventry University 2010 I worked as a self employed Sign maker and Designer for around 20 years before studying Fine Art as a mature student. I now share my time between my artist practice and my work as a designer. I am interested using the devices, technology and information delivery methods such as advertising or signs to initiate a re examination of our acquired viewing responses. As a society and as individuals we are taught to respond in certain ways to visual stimuli both in terms of content and materials and in my work I am asking the viewer to reassess the way they respond to the materials and the form as much as the message. By using the power of materials, familiarity and humour I am attempting to lead the viewer into an elaborate series of associations which at the heart look at fundamental human relations, desires and failings. A sample of work is shown here - mainly items For Sale. Other work and information at my website http://www.andydwillett.com/. I accept commissions.
