Christian Sloan is a Northern Irish sculptor who creates objects from a potential future timeline where climate change or nuclear war materialises, a warning of a deadline that has already passed. Our ancestors' archaeological legacy encompassed stone, wood, and clay, the structures and objects that lasted to our age. However, modern society's legacy will be concrete, metal, glass, and plastic. The artist explores these materials using inspirations from architecture, pollution, and industry to create forms and compositions that immerse the viewer in a depiction of scale monumentality: how smaller objects can evoke emotions and the presence of larger structures. He uses a minimalist style and repetition to create simple forms that oppose the busyness and chaos of modern technology and society today.
