Steven Dryden
1980
Sculpture artist Steven Dryden draws his influences from existentialist writers such as Albert Camus and Samuel Beckett, as he attempts to search for meaning in contemporary society through his art. Dryden mixes materials, using plaster, metal, rubber and even straw to create his human forms. The impact of his work is derived from the dream-like thought processes which his pieces manage to objectify, whilst maintaining a unique precision to his human forms. With works entitled ‘unended’ and ‘unjoy’, Dryden’s works possess an intriguing uneasiness, delivering a Camille Claudel like melancholy to Steven’s work.
Steven currently lives and works in Newcastle, and exhibited with Opus last year. He has already made quite a name for himself, with sculptures already having sold to collectors in Singapore and the North-East.
