The Room: an Environment with Fifteen Black Surfaces is a room with ten different arrangements. The forms are wood, canvas, paint, glass feathers, rug, epoxy and bronze. This sculptural environment has built, formed, found, arranged and rearranged. It maintains its volumetric character as sculpture yet it is a novel, a narrative of the personal history and visions of the sculptor himself, Donald Locke. Born in Guyana, South America, Locke Studied art in England. He has collected and built materials for form myths: private myths, private histories.
