Shayne Dark
Red Bough - figurative, contemporary, powder coated steel, wall sculpture

2024

About the Item

The delicate beauty and elegant form of a single tree bough inspired this bright red contemporary wall sculpture by Shayne Dark. The Canadian artist’s dynamic sculptures marry industrial materials with organic shapes. Dark’s evocative colour palette—this piece in red serves to accentuate the form and draw the viewer’s eye. “Sculpture has allowed me to convey my thoughts and ideas through a visual and tactile medium.” Shayne Dark “Dark seeks to reveal the inner beauty of the things around us with the aim of fostering a direct contemplation of the world, without the mediation of the artistic sphere. In this sense, his approach is part of a renewal of our ways of undoing and inhabiting places.” Katie Chagnon, Art Historian and Curator Shayne Dark was inducted into the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts in 2018, Dark has exhibited widely both nationally and internationally. In 2017, Dark had a solo exhibition and an artist residency at New York’s Brooklyn Botanical Garden. The same year, he had a solo exhibition at the Albright Knox, NY. Dark has received six Ontario Arts Council grants and a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant. His work may be found in numerous private, corporate and public collections worldwide.
