Details
Burton’s signature “Earthlight” sculptures are crafted from materials such as steel, slate, and glass, reflecting his deep connection to the earth’s resources. These pieces are designed to be placed in landscapes, particularly oriented towards the rising or setting sun, creating powerful visual statements. Through his work, Burton invites viewers to contemplate the complex relationship between humanity and the environment, highlighting both the benefits and environmental impacts of resource extraction.
I love art and my mantra has always been “Be brave, bold and humble .. Your work is as good as anyone else’s. Art is beautiful, ugly, subjective, opinionated and covers so many narratives.. put a piece of yourself into all your work”.
