That’s not really a deliberate choice\, but after many years of looking at art\, the stories and themes that resonate with me are often the ones I have found there. On one hand\, there’s a mischievous pleasure in trying to put my own stamp on a historic model\, but\, obviously\, it shows how well in tune with human experience the old masters were. The way visual art reflects our ideas of ourselves is fascinating\, and that it does so across time and culture is even more so. \nThe endeavour then is to try to embody something of the richness of the old artworks using the materials and techniques that are most familiar to me. \nI’ve always been a constructor of sculpture. A builder rather than a carver or modeller. Wood lends itself to this way of working. It permits quite a lot of scope for chopping and changing. The sculptures in this exhibition are all wood\, although I also work with steel.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Artist’s Bio” tab_id=”1451285630325-09def419-bb74b1db-6de11e00-4eaa”][vc_column_text]David Mackie \nBorn 1962\, Melbourne\, Australia. \nStudied Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology\, 1979 – 1982\, BA (Fine Art – Sculpture). \nSolo Exhibitions: \n\nPinacotheca\, Melbourne.\n\n\nPinacotheca\, Melbourne.\n\nGroup Exhibitions: \n\nSpring Collection\, Rhumballaras\, Melbourne.\n\n\nCollettiva La Sfinge\, Palazzo Casali\, Cortona\, Italy.\n\n\nWith Sarah Miatt\, Palazzo Casali\, Cortona.\n\n\nCollettiva La Sfinge\, Palazzo Casali\, Cortona.\n\n\nHybrida Contemporanea\, Rome.\n\n\n10th Cortilone International\, Sorano\, Italy.\n\n\nWith Liz Graham-Yooll\, 54 The Gallery\, London\, UK.\n\nCollections: \nPrivate collections in Australia\, Italy\, UK\, USA and Canada. \nWebsite:    www.davidmackie.it[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_tabs][/vc_column][/vc_row]
