Suspended Sculptures
by Laura Sgobbi
Suspended sculptures attract the eye with unrealistic, bright and extravagant colors. These artificial compositions, made of synthetic and un-natural materials, express dynamism and tension, movement and energy.
The artist who realizes these sculptures is James Norton, he devotes all his work in the creative process, which thus becomes a key element in his work, as fascinated by the different fabrics made unique by an unusual and unexpected union.
His creations are striking thanks to small and intricate details that are visible only from up close, where the special hardware and quantity of material used, make his work even more appreciated.
The strong visual impact when looking at these sculptures from far, is optimized by their different shapes and sizes, and the overall effect of the pieces of spontaneity and freedom of form, therefore never the same.
What seems like an organic appearance is rather the result of artificial and twisted paths implemented by materials and the nature to which the artist is inspired, as he recreates it in a new way with a strange feel to it. The use of small weights finally induce the sculptures to make a downward motion, increasing the torsion and dynamism.
