W. Scott Trimble

Scott’s early inspirations were discovering contrasting elements in nature; the derelict combine harvester on an old farm, the rusted steam donkey hidden up in the Sierras, and flotsam relics washed up on California coasts. The repetition of textures, pattern, and color juxtaposed to the context in which they were found. This is the thread that runs deep in his artwork. There is an inherent physicality and repetitive modality in technique and use of materials in creating his site specific sculptures that straddle the worlds between art, architecture, and the contrasting settings in which they reside. The intension of the artwork is to be accessible, facilitate ones own narrative, and encourage exploration.
