Victoria Miro is delighted to premiere a major bronze triptych by Conrad Shawcross on view as part of London Collective on Vortic Collect.

The first triptych in the artist’s Fracture series, Fracture Array (T14C27) is specially created for this presentation. Borne out of his celebrated Paradigms, which are an ongoing exploration of the tetrahedron – geometrically a four-sided non-tessellating form and conceptually the symbol of an indivisible unit of matter – Shawcross’ Fractures are ethereal forms that seem almost to disappear as they rise up and expand. Imbued with references to the manmade and natural worlds, each Fracture contains a central helical stem, a twisting spine that supports a series of branches which in turn support hundreds of fragments that dissipate in precise formation.
