An exhibition of drawings and kinetic sculptures by Steven Durbach (aka Sid Sledge).
Steven Durbach (aka Sid Sledge) is interested in the inherent chaos of everyday life, and the beauty which can be found in its unpredictability and ephemerality. These ideas are expressed in his drawings which reveal the chaotic, and allude to the uncertainty associated with certain processes. Durbach has created a series of self-portraits through the attachment of a machine to his drawing arm which manipulates his movements, bringing a sense of unpredictability to his work. His kinetic sculptures capture these processes in time. As a scientist, Durbach draws on the physical processes that give rise to the phenomena that he explores as an artist.
