Time Curves

Macrocarpa, gold leaf
Permanent Collection

Charlie Hooker is Professor of Sculpture at Brighton University in the UK. He made Time Curves on an artist residency at Wharepuke in November 2018.
The work is made from a single macrocarpa log sourced from the property.

Each segment was then set within a sunshine recorder which burned the wood as the sun moved across the sky. One layer each day for 14 days.
