Bob Rollings and Icosidodecahedral Shape-Throwing

August 15th, 2010

Whilst enjoying a fine summer evening at Durham castle at the wedding of my dear friend Timothy Victor and his comely bride Lydia a short time back I was fortunate enough to meet Tim’s uncle Bob Rollings.

We spent much of the evening deep in conversation about all things art, craft and creativity and almost two years on recently spent a most excellent day at my house as part of Bob’s month long peregrinations around the UK out of Canada.

Bob is something of a genius in the art of wood-turned platonic solids and I thought I’d display them for your inspection here.

A fine time was spent in further conversation, Guinness-imbibing, chatter and holding forth on our respective arts - ie. I banged on a bit about drawing and the like and he bewildered me with his knowledge of mathematical forms, wood-turning magic and icosidodecahedrons.

Below is a small selection of what Bob turned up with in his hold-all.

Kindly note that the polyhedral shapes contain a freely moving interior identical polyhedron within, with a spike extending from each face out through the holed outer faces, and are produced from a single block of wood by clever use of a lathe and requisite tools.

Magnificent indeed.

You can see some more of Bob’s work here, such as the piece below, also cut from a single block.

Urban Art Fair

July 17th, 2010

Good morning, weekend reveller.  Please, sit down.

I’ll be knocking out my arts today and tomorrow from the streets of Brixton at the Urban Art Fair on Josephine Avenue.

Come browse 150 exhibitors’ work, eat a piece of food, drink a glass of drink, and maybe even pop round the corner to the Lambeth Country Show to observe a kestrel in flight or dance to some popular music later on.

I’ll be there today and tomorrow parked up with Prince Sugarnips himself Agamemnon Otero and tousle-haired Megadude Oliver Shaw, lounging on our garden chairs waiting for you to arrive with the canapes and boiled sweets.

Hope to see you there.
