Abstract
David Kefford relocated a selection of his outdoor sculptures, alongside photographs from his ongoing Fox Encounters series, to the ancient woodland and The Black Shed Gallery, East Sussex, as part of Wasteland — a group project curated by artist Sharon Wylde in collaboration with Lorna Ough.
The project brought together artists whose practices explored the material connections between art, environment, and time, extending the exhibition into the surrounding landscape to create an immersive dialogue between sculpture, image, and site.
David’s hybrid, bodily assemblages — weathered by years of exposure in his garden — engaged with the ancient woodlands behind the gallery, while the Fox Encounters photographs were displayed alongside a series of small scale sculptures within a Cabinet of Curiosities inside the gallery space.
Wasteland celebrated found, repurposed, and organic materials through the work of Alice Freeman, Beccy McCray, David Kefford, Liz Elton, Rowan Corkill, Sarah Pager, and Sharon Wylde.
