ben browton: sculpture (1986 – 1988)
A selection from this period featuring large wall-mounted works, constructed from roofing beams, and shelf-based works constructed from floorboards. All the recycled wood was pulled out of skips (during another period of London regeneration) and then combined with glass and metals. All hail the neo-gothic!
