‘TRANSPOSE’ 2012
Commission for BUDDHA-BAR, near Hydepark No.1, London
Seated buddha sculpture, bronze-mesh
Dimensions 175 cm x 110 cm x 100 cm
Made from a single sheet of bronze mesh and transformed into an expressive, dynamic balance of power an dignity. Watch the video documentation of the production.
‘TRANSPOSE’ is a buddha image made from a single sheet of bronze mesh and transformed into an expressive, dynamic balance of power an dignity, an intriguing harmony of naked skin and drape. David Begbie has stressed an emphasis on the ears of the Buddha as a special reference to ‘listening’ and the way that music can ‘fill your head’. There is also a special emphasis on the transcendental nature of the Buddha: a floating transparent sculpture with a powerful dynamic fusion of the sculpture and its two shadows projected onto the frosted screen - seen first when entering the basement!
