| SWITCH is one of Granton's latest pieces made of found
objects: an artist's palette, a discarded xerox copy, a broken light switch
and the lid of a can of paint, very rusty. Elements here are electricity,
paper, metal, rust, plastic, carbon and paint. It brings together the two
humanities disciplines of literature and art with the sciences. The piece
is very striking and has allegorical meaning. The idea is that one can
switch on or off one's thoughts and that light can enter one's life through
the arts. |
