Richard James Education

  • 1980 - 84
    • Richard James studied at Northampton School of Art
    • Lives and works in Oundle, Northamptonshire
    • 'Boundaries between land and sea, places of renewal and continual possibility
    • A margin between states
    • It is here that I find and collect the objects I need for my work.
    • Objects whose secret histories are shrouded in mystery.
    • Sea bird and mammal bone still infused with their environment and powers of survival.
    • I bring these beautiful objects together, creating relics, totems and votive offerings.
    • Memorials to isolation and eulogies to an island landscape.'
