理查德·迪恩·休斯描述了真实与假设之间的微妙关系。 休斯经常重新审视和描述个人和内部空间,从想象的场景中获取人工制品、感觉和“视觉效果”,通过对材料和碰撞物体的操纵将它们带入实时。 他的雕塑质疑合理性的概念,质疑自己的存在,作为休斯试图描述的空间的代表性展示。 休斯经常从历史中汲取灵感,在作品中产生真实的地点和时间感。 通过强调与作品主要内容的脱节来引起观众的挫败感。 雄伟和过去时的加入夸大了现代社会的变化以及我们与自然、传统和历史的脆弱关系。
Born in England in 1987, lives and work in Manchester, UK.
Richard Dean Hughes describes the slippery relationship between the real and hypothetical. Hughes often revisits and describes a personal and internal space, taking artifacts, feelings and ‘visuals’ from imagined scenarios, bringing them into real time through the manipulation of material and collisional objects. His sculptures question the idea of plausibility, they question their own existence, acting as a representational display of the space in which Hughes is trying to describe. Often drawing from history Hughes generates a real sense of place and time within the work; evoking a frustration within the viewer by emphasising a disconnect with the primary content of the work. The inclusion of the majestic and the past tense exaggerates a change in modern society and our fragile relationship with nature, tradition and history.
