Robert Milnes’ inspiration for this body of work was kindled on his 2021 trip to the Yucatan peninsula. He found pieces of dead coral on the beach which had an organic, modular form that intrigued him.
With this, Robert engaged with the Austrian philosopher, Ludwig Wittgenstein, incorporating his seven propositions, sometimes using those propositions as titles to his ceramic sculptures. Wittgenstein discusses language as a picture. But, philosophy aside, these ceramic works are wondrous objects to behold.
Robert Milnes: Sea What I Think, is on view at PDNB Gallery in Dallas, TX.
