RICKY SWALLOW IS AN AUSTRALIAN SCULPTOR. A MASTERCRAFTSMAN CARVING OUT A SIGNIFICANT NICHE IN THE ARTWORLD.HE BORN IN 1974, SAN REMO, VICTORIA. HE DID HIS BACHELOR OF FINE ART MAJOR, DRAWING FROM VICTORIAN COLLEGE OF THE ARTS; MELBOURNE IN 1994-96.HE DID HIS EVERYTHING IS NOTHING SCULPTURE OUT OF CARVED WOOD. I ASSUME HE CURVED THE TIMBER AND REFINED IT. IN HIS WORK THE MONOCHROMATIC TIMBER AND THE DRAMATIC SIDE-LIGHTING CREATE A STRONG SHADOWS AND HIGHLIGHTS, POINT TO THE INHERENT UNREALITY OF TRANSCRIBING ANIMATE FORM INTO INANIMATE MATERIALS.
HE USED MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF MIDEA BUT SINCE HE STARTED WORKING WITH WOOD HE FINDS IT BEST MEDIA TO CHALLENGES HIMSELF AT ALL TIME.
HE ALSO TRIES TO MAKE THE SCULPTURE TO COMMUNICATE WITH US.IIT IS AMAZING THAT IN HIS KILLING TIME HOW HE TRACK A FISH FIN OR THE SEAM OF A BEANBAG TO ANIMATE THE FORMS AND VITALISE THEM TO COMMUNICATE WITH US. HE CHANGES OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE EVERYDAY AND SO ENRICHES US.
