Shawn Smith creates sculptures of heavily pix-elated subject matter. The sculptures are mostly of natural forms and animals, he uses painted wood blocks to achieve the effect. He also incorporates the use of found objects and makes his sculptures interact with them in different ways. I somehow question Smiths practice. I see it as a contemporary visual exploration. However I am not sure where further involvement in his current practice may lead. To me some of the ideas appear a bit novel and cliché. Some works do though penetrate the surface a bit deeper. Some of the animal sculptures that are presented like trophy heads carry a narrative that is haunting because of the abstracted representation of the animal. I feel some of the pieces work very strongly and can carry some strong ideas and thoughts.
