artist profile : Martin George 1980

Last year I installed “In Transit” at Settlers Square in Dandenong.

This sculpture had an intervention and was set on fire. Scientific experimentation is great, but I was chuffed that the scientists thought the bronze pallet was indeed timber and flammable, a victory for interred obfuscation, and sculpture in general.

The sculpture has been restored, it looks great now also.
