Statement
'All Quiet Now' is a series of objects that sit on a knife edge between image and sculpture. The work is heavily laboured using densely woven printed surfaces, coppersmithing, and plaster etchings to discuss personal experiences through material processes. Together these objects sit as an arrangement that reflects Euan's memories of his childhood in the Cornish landscape. Materiality is a key component within Euan's work and you'll see the repetition of scrap copper and found objects echoing the experience of living amongst the south Caradon Copper mines.
