> JELLY MOULDS - FRAMED RELEF CASTS

​​To help me fund making the big ones…. I’m producing a set of small jellyfish reliefs as limited edition framed works available from my london studio. Cast in Jesmonite and beach sand. Dimensions 24 x 24 x 4cm​ framed and hangs on a wall like any picture. ​

Last summer I spent some time beach plaster casting the large dead jellyfish washed up on a Welsh shore. Out of their natural marine habitat and seen up close slumped on land, jellyfish are amazingly alien in form, and a beautifully viscous material to make moulds from! This will become a substantial body of sculptural work when I have the funds and a venue to exhibit. 

A small edition of these works are available each for £120 + p&p - Sales or enquiries via the form at the top of the SHOP page.

> BEACHED JELLYFISH CASTING RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT

From my childhood, I’ve visited the seaside resort of Fairbourne in Gwynedd - potentially to become the first UK habitation to be decommissioned as a result of climate change. In recent years I’ve noticed an abundance of large Jellyfish washing up on the shoreline, a melancholic yet poetic coincidence in a place that will eventually return to the sea.

​​​A proposed body of work casting dead jellyfish washed up on the beaches in North Wales > These initial beach plaster casts will hopefully be the starting point for an extended period of research and development resulting in a series of relief sculptures and new body of work in 2023/24. 

The image above shows two of my initial pink silicone moulds made from plaster casts made on the beach as shown below. ​
