Alistair’s path into Sculpture was unexpected. He had worked for many years as an advertising and editorial photographer. Seven years ago he decided to complete a home renovation by creating a Calder-esque mobile.

In short, he immediately fell in love with the hands-on and very tactile creative process of shaping, forming, balancing and colourising these kinetic pieces, and now devotes most of his time to creating new sculptures.

Drawing inspiration from the natural world – the flutter of leaves, the rhythm of waves – his sculptures respond to the air around them. As they move, they create a gentle, almost meditative calm.

Alistair is curious to play with creating new potential for previously discarded and redundant forms, particularly those that exist inside the privacy and rigidity of deep industry, and to create a narrative with them that explores our societal disconnect from the natural world around us
