Now for sale online at Dolphin Galleries! Evidence of a Beautiful World (Small). In the spirit of marine explorers returning from distant seas with artefacts to exhibit proving the existence of new and vastly different worlds, Stuart has created a seashell that corresponds to no seashell known to man. What may once have been flexible and elastic tissue of great softness has ossified and been eroded. Now cold and hard to the touch and worn down by the sands of strange shores, one can still discern the lineaments of a rich and luxurious life.

The Artist
Todd Stuart
Todd Stuart is an Australian contemporary sculptor who works in three materials that ask for three different crafts: stainless steel polished to a mirror, silicon bronze finished in patina, and carved stone. The work runs from pieces that sit on a table to pieces taller than a doorway, and almost all of it is signed and made in small limited editions.
