Will Budgett

This abstract sculpture by Will Budgett reveals its true form when illuminated, casting the ethereal shadows of two dancers that appear to float weightlessly on the wall. The shadows are graceful and angelic, in striking contrast to the sculpture’s fiery, contorted structure. This interplay of light and form creates a haunting duality, where beauty emerges unexpectedly from the grotesque. The piece includes a light and base, bringing this shadowed transformation to life.

Will Budgett’s work explores the interplay between light and shadow. The abstract sculptures are balanced by the contrasting graceful shadows that so strikingly contradict the other, examining the relationship between what is visible and what remains hidden within an object. In his sculptures, light serves not only as a tool but as a storyteller. His work aims to illuminate the forgotten and neglected spaces of our lives creating a centrepiece in the corner of the room, garden or gallery.
