Brooke Benington gallery in Cleveland Street has an exhibition entitled “Two Volcanoes” by sculptor Andrew Sabin, during May and June.
Sabin’s 40 year sculptural practice has been an investigation into the nature of material and the space it occupies.
In 2010 he created an ambitious public sculpture, The Coldstones Cut in the Yorkshire Dales. For this he won the Marsh Award for sculpture in 2011.
Sabin then brought his focus back to his studio to experiment with pigmented concrete — allowing the colours to mix as he casts it, creating gestural swirls of painterly colour across the surface of his sculptures — and pigmented expanded polyurethane foam built around welded steel structures, allowing him to create large — and light — forms at relative speed.
His recent practice has been sculpting his moulds in margarine.
