Famous Fish
Dan Murphy
Please be welcomed to Dan Murphy’s solo show; ‘Famous Fish’
Famous fish is the opportunity taken up to present from Dan Murphy’s 2021 Lofty award.
‘I first visited WTS in the early days at the iceworks, maybe 93 or 4. I helped out on the board for a bit and then WOW, such an honour, to be awarded "The Lofty" in 2021 means I finally get to have my own show at my favourite gallery.
Sometimes it's hard to get started but eventually, I did begin making a picture of honeymoon gap. ended up everything in the show was made at honeymoon gap. not the physical location but the honeymoon gap in my head.
This whole show is result of procrastination about finishing that piece and Im doing it now, writing this is not what I'm meant to be doing today. There's still a few more sculptures trying to squeeze thru that honeymoon gap too, so I'm wondering if I'll ever actually fiinsh it. we'll see.
Anyway I think I've made a pretty interesting pile of metal work stuff ànd also a whole room full of fish.
I hope youse like it.’
