James Doran-Webb: Evolution

From a young age, James Doran-Webb developed a practical awareness of how objects mellow and endure over time. Long before sculpture became his primary focus, the logic of how form is sustained, and how it eventually fails, had already become central to his thinking. Doran-Webb has since developed an internationally recognised sculptural language focused on animals, working exclusively with decades-dead reclaimed molave wood, responsibly sourced from private land along riverbeds and coastal environments. This exhibition marks Doran-Webb’s first one-man presentation in America, staged during Scottsdale Art Week.
