Tim Davies is one of the most exciting artists working in Britain
today. Internationally exhibited and acclaimed he specialises in
art which explores identity through artefacts - he has approached
Wales through wool, fire, oil-drenched seabird feathers, lead from
the roof of a disused chapel. More exotically he has returned a
tropical hardwood parquet floor to the Belizean jungle from whence
it came, laying the blocks among the trees where new plants now
grow through them and termites erode them. Change, organic and by
intervention, and method are at the centre of Davies' art; process
is its determining feature. In a retrospective approach three
leading critics provide an illuminating and informative commentary
to his work. David Alston is the Keeper of Art at the Lowry Centre;
Iwan Bala is one of Wales' leading artists and critics; Anne
Price-Owen is Senior Lecturer in Art at the Swansea Institute.
Together they explore the practise, the international context, the
Welsh context and the recurring motifs of Tim Davies' work. Davies
himself also provides a commentary on five of his significant
pieces, and the Foreword is provided by Susan Daniel-McElroy,
Director of Tate St Ives.
