Tony Cragg

Went to see Tony Cragg at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art -

Looking inside the larger sculptures was like finding a hollowed out tree - I could have sat inside it all day, watching snippets of life go past from the numerous tiny openings where space overlapped space.

As you walk around each sculpture faces appear and disappear. Some warp into recognisable yet unplaceable lines while others are very clearly human profiles.

The surfaces were one my favourite parts - such unbelievable smoothness! The most beautiful of all the materials had to be the wood - each line echoing the last layer, highlighting every curve and every turn.
