Daniel Eatock
UK conceptual artist Daniel Eatock’s website showcases his stark and simplistic works. Its easy to eye-roll at the capital A approach to “Art” in this modern style, but something about Eatock’s experiments is strangely soothing and satisfying. They make me smile. And think. My head just gets too busy for any eye rolling.
Tops.
29 coloured plastic tops and lids arranged and rearranged.
Everything Heinz.
An edition of 57 sealed cans each containing a composite mix of 57 Heinz canned foods. Commissioned by the Design Museum London.
Up & Down.
One coloured balloon (filled with helium) touching the ceiling connected by a white ribbon to a second balloon (of a different colour) filled with breath (exhaled by a member of the gallery staff) resting on the floor.
You’re smiling or thinking now too, no?
