Sculptures FOB 2009 -2010

May 1, 2014 By John Rankine 1 Comment

First shown in conjunction with a series of photographs, these found object assemblage sculptures were based on the global affects of an overly industrial, corrupt planet and its long-term affects on the innocent, especially the children.

The series was first shown as part of the Beneath the Surface exhibit at The Space In 2010 and later exhibited in Toronto at the Pentimento Gallery in 2011.

    Hi john
    really like these assemblages. Got your web site from you when I was visiting my childhood friend Mary Anne and Les. Hope you are well. am in the middle of doing a set of assemblages/shrines to the ideal woman and the ideal man. I was really inspired by my trip there and seeing your shrine in Maryanne’s house
