LIMULUS Nissen’s most recent works are a series of bronzes and collages Limulus, based on forms of the Horse Shoe Crab. This rather bizarre animal is called a living fossil as it is the oldest living animal known to us that has not changed its form in millions of years, and has long fascinated him. Its simple exterior helmet shape encloses the baroque symmetry of the inside, and he was attracted to developing these contained forms with the idea of inside/outside as a sculptural space; the one invoking the other. |
