"The brilliant but haunting sculptures Tim Hawkinson devises are for the first time documented in this small but thorough five year survey of this artist's work. Made from unlikely waste materials in constructions that mimic the workings of various machines and functions of natural systems, Hawkinson immediately puts his viewers on edge. The breath of work ranges from the very tiny, a skeletal bird made from nail clippings, to the massive, floating forms, covered with what has a distinct resemblance to human skin. But it is his melding of these very personal materials with his alienating forms that give the works such astounding resonance and presence. Hawkinson is an American artist that will no doubt have international acclaim for many years."
