Solomon Fine Art is delighted to present an exhibition of sculpture by artist Tim Morris. Boxcars is an installation comprising of almost 200 wholly unique bronze structures which the artist has been creating since 2020. Conjuring images of transport, trade and travel these Boxcars sit in wait, stationary yet charged with history, intrigue and anticipation.
Constructed of discarded corrugated cardboard and cast in bronze, Morris began building boxcars during lock-down. The project - initiated to occupy the artist and to express a sense of ‘waiting’ during that prohibitive time - has continued, with more recent iterations created last year during an extensive road trip across Europe and North Africa. Morris has created 195 of these unique, toy-like sculptures which he will bring together for this, his first exhibition at Solomon.
Working from his own foundry in Foxford Co. Mayo, Morris is best known for his unique works in metal and bronze. Stemming from internal musings, imagination and childhood memories his distinct and intuitive sculptural objects bare both playfulness and weight. Born in Wicklow in 1965 Morris served an apprenticeship as a stonecutter with Roe and O’Neill’s granite quarry from 1980-1984 and studied under the American sculptor Robert Schoen at his studio in Carrara, Italy until 1987. He has exhibited extensively throughout Ireland and is represented in both public and private collections.
