BEARSPACE is proud to present the artist & sculptor Max Hymes in his first solo exhibition in London, following his successful solo exhibition in the ‘Glasgow Sculpture Studio,’ in May 2007. Hymes lives and works in the Hackney area of East London and has a unique, historically based yet fresh take on the ‘Object D’Art.’

Hymes sculptures are a montage of materials, design and objects. The work has a collected feel, standing as totems to diverse civilastions, they are stacked, often mounted on plinths or standing in installation with mirrors and screens. An array of diverse and eclectic materials sit together. Different types of wood have been crafted, fine beading is painstakingly applied, fine pieces of gold and silver metals boarder areas, often creating tescilised pattern work. Glittering pumpkins stand aloft beautifully created wooden objects, these sculptures stand as a tribute to craftsmanship and the obsessive hand of the artist.

Elixir Arts would like to hear from freelance digital portrait photographers who would be interested in a short project in early October. The applicant would be working with hospital patients and so would need to possess or apply for a CRB disclosure certificate.

If you would like to know more about the project, please contact the Arts Manager on 020 8836 5831 or email

A location-specific installation sited in two vacant shop units at the Duke Street entrance to the Mall in Barrow-in-Furness.
The form of the work is derived from the curved bow of the Vigilant, a Vanguard class nuclear submarine built in Barrow.
The intention of the work is to make it appear that the submarine has dropped onto the building. However, instead of demolishing it, the building has adjusted itself to accommodate the shape of the hull.
