TROPHIES
FEATURING THE WORK OF TOM DRISCOLL
The Museum Of__ proudly presents
Trophies
Curated by Mark Quint
Driscoll has been making sculptures for over 50 years in San Diego, often organic or industrial forms cast in concrete or gypsum cement. At TMO__, Driscoll presents a recent series of secondhand trophies, altered through a process of combining, removing, and fusing different figures.
By dipping them in a tinted polyester resin, each figure has been manipulated in unexpected ways improvised by the artist. Several figures, the majority being athletes in action, are merged, holding hands, or entangled in either an embrace or struggle.
Driscoll’s trophies are a reflection of one’s success transformed into archeological finds.
