      Haffendi Anuar, PLT 52

      Est: £1,500 - £2,500

      The Pilotis are a group of sculptures that the artist has been making since 2015. Anuar creates them by stacking everyday melamine tableware and coating the bowls, cups and sauce containers with cement, sand, adhesive and Puttyfilla and layers of enamel paint before laboriously sanding the surface, revealing the colourful skin below. Pilotis, architectural tropes of modern architecture, inspire the forms of the sculptures. Slender and pillar-like, they also reference stilts in Southeast Asian dwellings which raise buildings above ground to protect their inhabitants from floods and wild animals. They could be placed on table tops or on the floor, in which the audience are asked to walk around the clusters, relating their physical presence to the sculptures. A version of the sculpture has been translated into a set of 4 outdoor sculptures currently on display at the Battersea Power Station, London. This lot ships from London. "This work was donated by the artist for the SolidArty auction to raise money for Doctors Without Borders."
