Peter Haines has spikey figures of bronze and Eric Sealine has recreated views of his studio in a forced perspective tromp l’oeil.
Haines says "As in dreams, elements of the world seep in. For instance, a number of spike forms appeared, which I associate with Covid, although I had no intention of addressing the virus. Looking at the 2.5 years of work in this show, I scarcely remember how the sculptures came to be. They are “Visitors” from other realms."
Sealine's presents 4 main artworks using “forced perspective” to examine the artist’s workspace. Here he takes the constructed trompe l’oeil to the limits of peripheral vision, where all straight lines have two vanishing points. It refers to the experience of working as an artist. They have a Euclidean regard for the space itself, something we have all had time to experience.
