Mimetolith; Darrell Petit website open!
Thanks Norman.
As well as being physically proficient, Darrell is full of
fun ideas:
"The artist identifies the physical space of the granite
quarry as "?correspond[ing] to the anatomy of my brain.
My interaction with the quarry has evolved so that my
creative thought springs directly from its environment:
material, spatial presence, geological time ? all inform
the sculpture. Metaphorically the quarry is the inside of
my head cut open?where perpetual blasting, drilling and
further exploration are part of an ongoing process to
excavate ideas?."7 (from the ESPACE article)
Wow! Let's operate!
