Stevens Vaughn - The Pier precinct
Stevens Vaughn is a conceptual ritualistic artist, who has spent much of his life in Asia. In 1978 he was sent by the Peace Corps, from a farm in the US to the Philippines, to work with tropical agriculture. This step led him into a lifelong relationship with Asian Art, history and mythology. Vaughn established a career as a designer and sculptor in Asia and other parts of the world, opening studios in Japan, China, Taiwan, Sri-Lanka and Mexico. During his nine years based in Japan he was influenced by “MA- Space” and Shibui aesthetics, the philosophy of simple, rough effortless imperfection as it relates to perfection, in a non-dualist construct of the world.
Stevens’ work for LSB2022, The Throne of Potentiality will form the centre of a spoken word performance by Stevens on the opening day of the Biennale.
Saturday 12 March from 4pm.
Location: On site at Lorne Pier precinct.
This is a free event.
