Italia
Adrean Bloomard's works convey the aura of an object that is thousands of years old, yet relates to the times we live in. He has carried out research relative to the study of historical elements that remain constant in time and have explored the potential that objects from the past have of evoking sensations, memories and the consequent impact they have on us. He believes that objects 'belonging' to history are part of our formative experience, representing our cultural DNA. His main inspiration comes from architecture, ancient repertoires and ruins in Rome, where he lives and works. He has been breathing-in this atmosphere every day since he was born and consequently this is expressed in what he makes. He allows the materials he uses to become "compromised" during the making process, resulting in a metal surface that often appears to be cracked, jagged, corroded or worn.
