Everything we do and all decisions we make as adults, always we refer and look back what we learned from our childhood, consciously or subconsciously. Our brain is one big library of references, we learn throughout our lives and yet we tend to make decisions in life that open up doors to what next... and next after that and so on... Deep down inside we feel trapped inside of own bodies and destinies, with no way out, just like trapped soul's in that vastness of the universe. As human being I feel our unity is our only salvation to good and prosperous life. I can not say this message enough in my work, as this means so much to me as an artist. Being physically caged is one thing, but being mentally and emotionally caged, is entirely different matter.
Tolleck Winner was born in 1959. He has lived and worked in the United Kingdom since 1980. Dedicated to producing art as full time occupation, his work is kept in private and public collections in the UK and throughout the world.
A number of his larger scale works also feature in public displays in the UK, such as the large steel sculpture, ‘People’, which stands alongside the works of Anthony Gormley and Sir Anthony Caro in the Peterborough Sculpture Park.
By injecting fragments of gaudy imagery, Tolleck’s work reveals a subtle flirtation with the current popular culture. Encapsulating frivolous objects with acrylic creations, the work exposes the existential fears which everyone hides beneath the trivial concerns of daily life. There is an underlined focus on the passage of time through generation to generation that once again reminds us of the briefness and inconsequentiality of human life.
