Matchbox Aviary

Hand cut paper birds in vintage match boxes, signed by the artist; 530mm x 530 mm. Presented in waxed oak frame.

Andrew Malone’s hand-cut paper constructions, which turn a series of two-dimensional images into freestanding entities that can be read as flip-books or static objects, combine his love for the natural world and a nostalgia for the ephemera of his youth: matchboxes, Observer’s Book series and I-Spy books.

Andrew studied sculpture at Central St Martins, London, Canterbury College of Art, and Hochschule der Künste in Berlin and lives and works in Whitstable, Kent. He exhibits in the UK with galleries in Kent, London and Norfolk, as well as in America and Australia.

Due to the nature of the vintage elements in this artwork, please expect that details and specific birds may vary.
