About
Sculpture by Dominic McHenry
Dominic J McHenry is a UK based sculptor who works with wood, steel and stone. McHenry creates abstract works that allude to architecture and the human form, like ancient totems. They have an air of the mystical and primative about them.
McHenry is part of the Bask collective. Along with Jim Shepherd and Angus Ogilvie, they 'bring a subversive take on the history of monumental sculpture, appropriating industrial and organic materials and applying them to semi architectural forms to create objects that carry there own weight and narrative.'
The title Monkey Rope refers to the rope used by Ishmael and Queequeg in Melville's epic novel Moby Dick to ensure if one of them falls in to the sea, the other will be able to pull them out. Moby Dick was used by McHenry and his colleagues in the Bask collective as a narrative to guide visitors through an exhibition at Camberwell College of Arts in 2014.
McHenry graduated from UAL in 2012.
