Hamish Young is well known for cultivating his art practice such that it sits neither under one label nor another. His works are both drawing and sculpture; somehow both two- and three- dimensional. They are nomadic in a way that reflects the subject of Hamish’s work: that of being an adoptee and unwilling school boarder, being removed from one place and put in another; residing permanently in no place.
As part of the body of work that is FIELD, Hamish created several works which he considers to be ‘working drawings’. These pieces illustrate this concept perfectly.
