Artist Statement
These are temporary memorials, hold them in both hands for a time and think of a name of someone you've lost, someone lost to history, or someone who you think should be remembered. Return the bowls to a different place on the tables once you're done.
About the Artist
Elliot Collins
I am a text based artist who works in an interdisciplinary way incorporating painting, language, photography, installation and sculpture to discuss ideas of time, memory and ways we interpret our environment. I am interested in the art that can inform our lives and can be used as a filter or divining tool to see the world we inhabit with greater clarity and purpose. I live and work in Taranaki after moving from Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland in 2021 which has given me an even greater perspective and insight as to the power and purpose of a creative practice.
