Kitty Calvert assemblage sculptures are a collaboration of treasure hunt and treasure build, between Melbourne based husband and wife Julia Brampton and Phill Calvert. Each brings their individual expertise to the project and each creation. They share the joy and the humour of the work, as well as the desire to make cool new stuff, from cool old stuff and bring life to inanimate objects that might just has easily been sent to land fill. In today’s world where things are designed with obsolescence in mind, we find there is a hankering for things that last. Sometimes these are things from our past….maybe things we let go of years ago or things that were lost or misplaced as our lives evolved and we “grew”. Where did all those things go? Such things of beauty, often so carefully and artfully constructed at a time when things were made to last. With the sculptures, we have given them a new life. Seeing the pieces recycled, revived and reimagined, reborn and reinvigorated in a way that brings new joy to a new audience. We wish for our assemblages to encourage the individual to share their own stories and memories.

Born from the detritus of a multitude of memories, our assemblage sculptures are created using vintage, upcycled, recycled, lost, found and discovered treasure, evoking cherished memories of childhood and times past. In a world of mass consumption, we view the pieces of treasure used in each sculpture as memory carrying vessels, taking us to a time in the past where things were built to last. We invite the viewer to reflect on the potential journey each piece has made to its final resting place inside the sculpture. With the sculptures, we have given unwanted or unloved pieces of treasure a new life. Seeing the pieces recycled, revived and restored, reimagined, reborn and reinvigorated in a way that brings new joy to a new audience and in a way that encourages the audience to share stories and to voyage on their own magical journey of memory. Each piece has been left in its original found state. The patina, paint, dents, scratches, bruises, “bed hair”, and dirt are all part of the conserved history of each piece. Our assemblage sculptures are a collaboration of treasure hunt and treasure build, between Melbourne based husband and wife Phill Calvert and Julia Brampton.
