Diablo Mode - "Accident Prone"

Accident Prone
Opening Tuesday 23 April, 6:30 - 8:00pm



The sculptures in this show represents the moods, memories, habits and routines of the artist. 

As Baskets, they are stripped of function and exist purely for decoration. Their purpose isn't to hold fruit, car keys, coins or anything else that gets thrown in a bowl, but rather emotion and ideas.

Being self taught, Diablo's work is free from cultural constraint and tradition, which gives him a high degree of creative freedom.

Drawn to the etchings of Ernst Haeckel (Artforms in Nature) and Alburtus Seba (Natural Curiosities) who both focussed on art forms in the natural world, Diablo draws inspiration from the mathematics of nature.

Come to the opening: Tuesday 23 April 6:30 - 8:00PM
ESD Gallery
