Escultura de madera metal y huevo

Samuel Zealey sees his sculptural work as part of this ongoing and complex conversation, whilst also highlighting the challenges our current environmental climate faces and the moralistic issues brought about by contemporary technological advances.
His sculptural works combine playfulness of form with precise engineering and a highly developed material sensitivity. The works radiate a lively aesthetic, alert to the ways in which art and creativity can engage with questions about culture, technology and sustainability.
He has a long-standing interest in the relationship between new technologies and environmental issues. With many of Zealey’s works, his visual language highlights the use of modern technological advances that impact the environment. Zealey approach his practice with a view to creating works that highlight the environmental problems created as a result of global warming brought about by the use of dirty, non-reusable fuels humans continue to consume and burn. In turn, His work leads to a new awareness in theories surrounding ‘Global weirding’ – a complementary term to global warming to reflect the belief that climate change will cause weather related and natural catastrophes in extremes.
