ANDY MITCHELL SCULPTURES

The Work

Andy’s artistic work reflects the modern world around him. He doesn’t believe in the dividing lines between fine art and craft, street art and museum art. It is the age of fusion and his work invariably reflects this reality.  He works with traditional materials and old processes but also makes work with the help of computers. Some days he is restoring an old monument, other days designing a brand new one.

Andy designs and makes work that is both relevant and beautiful in an age of constant change and flux.
