Joseph Walsh 对木材的应用称得上是出神入化。在最近的新展览Magnus Celestii中，其新作让人更为赞叹。如今他对木材的探索又达到了一个新起点。
Magnus Celestii 是Joseph Walsh工作室第一件此类规模的作品。
作品名称来源于拉丁文Magnus（“大”）和Celesti（天空的）。Joseph十分注重体验，这个大规模的装置可以让参观者流连其间。
Magnus Celestii is the first work of this scale to be realised by Joseph Walsh’s studio.
The title of the pieces derives from the Latin words Magnus (‘Large’ / ‘Great’) and Celesti (‘Heavenly’). Here, Joseph is conscious of the viewers’ experience, the increased scale allows the viewer to move within the piece.
The large, free form sculpture is made from layers of ash, spiralling upwards from floor to ceiling. Emerging out of a desk form, the sculptural work expands outwards to wrap the entire one-roomed space of the Artists’ House, coming to rest with a large shelf hanging on the side wall of the gallery. The site specific work for the exhibition space in the Artist house presented an opportunity for Joseph to address the relationship between form and function within the unique context of the New Art Centre at Roche Court.
The Magnus large-scale work represents a significant departure for the studio and workshop, as Joseph sought to continue his language of exploring form while adhere to the principle of employing materials sympathetically. The piece is a culmination of many years work and marks out new territory the studio intends to continue exploring.
