Over the winter, American artist Jedd Novatt was showing his acrobatic, balancing geometric works which defy gravity at Waddington Custot in Mayfair.  By coincidence, earlier in the year when London was covered in a sprinkling of show one of his works was available at Phillips auction of contemporary art.

Novatt’s geometric shapes are architectural in form and would fit well in well-designed public spaces; indeed one of his sculptures is placed in the park alongside the Guggenheim in Bilbao.

Novatt’s sculptures from his ‘Chaos’ series, constructed of intertwined and carefully-balanced asymmetrical and quadratic shapes in rusting Corten steel, were on show alongside his ‘South London’ series of woodblock prints.
