Sculpture
Luke Chiswell's Trophy series transforms worn skateboards into evocative sculptures, celebrating the cycles of creativity and perseverance. Each piece bears inscriptions in Chiswell's distinctive asemic script, with words like "Begin Again" and "Last Try" marking pivotal moments in the process of making and remaking. Skateboarding, the artist's initial foray into transforming ideas into reality, becomes a metaphor for the eternal rhythm of vision, effort, and renewal. These sculptures encapsulate the relentless pursuit of bringing a concept to life, only to uncover the next challenge—a profound tribute to the art of doing and becoming.

“Each work tells it's own story through unique markings and scratches, their own destruction giving rise to a moment, to a memory, to an achievement.”

About the Process
Chiswell's Trophies Series
To make works from his "Trophies" series, Chiswell skates on a skateboard until it breaks. During each skating session he repeats a specific word, like "try" or "best" to himself. When the board breaks, Chiswell considers it then a "Trophy" and the word he repeated is carved into it.
