ABOUT THE ARTWORK
"The studio roof is now fixed and the culprits, 40 rusty screws, is a current work in progress (apparently 95% of the leaks in metal roofs are due to poorly fitted screws, which rust and let water through)" The opening quotation comes from my published notes in 2019, when I began this project. However, the actual reason the studio roof leaked and the screws became rusty was due to condensation forming within the roof structure, and not rain dripping and pouring in. A new roof, coated with an anti-condensation product, has now replaced the old one. So, with a dry space in which to work, I return to the project and coat each of the rusty screws with two coats of PVA to retain their integrity and history. I then attach these endearing found objects on a golden acrylic canvas, backed with timber, each one secured by a robust U nail… (Note: If the work were to be hung in a gallery/white space, I would consider attaching them directly to the wall, as with other work I have made)

Philip Bennetta
United Kingdom
"My work is research-based. I use commonplace materials, together with paint, text, film and sound to respond to place, environment, folklore and memory; each work an artefact in an ongoing process.This is basically my set of rules, which at times I decide to break." Philip Bennetta is an English artist, poet and psychologist who has also lived and worked in France and South America. In the late nineteen sixties he became attracted to an interdisciplinary approach to the arts, which continues today, featuring a considered inclusion of subjects, styles, materials and techniques together with the blurring of traditional boundaries. His work relates to place, fragment, folklore and memory and is essentially poetic, inspired by E.E. Cummings, T.S. Eliot and Arte Povera. His poetry has appeared in a range of literary journals, anthologies, collections, films and broadcasts. He is married to the visual artist Susan Bennetta and their home and studios are in Walmer, Deal, Kent.
