Catalogue Note

Stuart Haygarth's 'Tide' chandeliers are the result of several years of the artist wandering the British and Dutch coastlines, collecting man-made debris which has washed up on the shore. The result is a vibrant, glowing form, which reminds the viewer of man's ability to create beauty from his own wastefulness.
