Omnibus

Omnibus is the principle sculpture in the ‘Reflections on War’ series. Unlike conventional war memorials, Omnibus is a neutral statement where I have tried to avoid patriotic statement.

Thematic interrelationships of objects are predominant in both Omnibus and the Reflections on War series. These objects may appear utterly different, however, their combination and juxtaposition create a new form, where perception between objects, form and related thought is of importance.

My principle theme objective is that of tragedy, loss, reconciliation and the futility of war.

Omnibus commemorates this tragic loss and is my contribution toward the centenary year of the Great War 1914-1918 and in particular to, and in memory of those brave uniformed men who made the ultimate sacrifice for their countries.
