plasticine on wood, in artist's frame (in four parts)
2011
Dan Rees presents a tactile and self-referential work in which plasticine is applied directly onto wood across four discrete panels, each housed within a frame constructed by the artist himself. The materiality of the piece is central to its identity, with the soft, malleable quality of the plasticine contrasting against the rigid wooden support beneath. By embedding the framing as an intentional element of the work's authorship, Rees collapses the boundary between the artwork and its presentation.
