Meet the Artist | Dan Lane aka Mechanica at Castle Fine Art

Mechanica | Every Piece Of Me

Mixed media artist Dan Lane aka Mechanica will be joining Castle Fine Art in the gallery to present his striking collection of original sculpture.

Mechanica is a mixed media artist that defies labels and stands apart from recognised genres. Building up his intricate works from an array of everyday objects, Mechanica assembles hundreds of individual components into eye-catching works of art reminiscent of ornate, Baroque style sculptures.

“My work is a dark yet beautiful take on natural forms by mechanical intervention.” - Mechanica

His artistic practice unites various elements of nature, religious iconography and industrial components, with a complex methodology and fusion of styles which affords Mechanica an artistic fingerprint all of his very own.

This event will take place on Saturday 27th February, 1pm - 4pm. The exhibition will then run for two weeks.

SS16 Splash Floral at Dr.Martens

 



For SS16, Dr. Martens has tapped into its unrivalled cultural relevance once again by taking inspiration from one of the most peculiar, the most extravagant and also one of the most distinct youth cultures who wore Dr. Martens - Psychobilly. Psychobilly blends punk, rock and rockabilly often mixed with imagery lifted from horror and sci-fi films. As a result, slime and splat typography often feature in both band artworks and gig posters.
Inspired by this, Dr. Martens have interpreted this approach on to the 3 iconic styles in a customised and exclusive floral print. The classic 3 eye 1461 shoe and mary-jane t-bar shoe are available in blue, with the 8 eye 1460 boot available in both blue and green.
This is a female only collection, available in size 3-9 and has been created in the iconic, hard wearing smooth leather. Available January 2016 in Dr. Martens stores, Dr.Martens.com and selected retailers.

Psychobilly blends punk, rock and rockabilly often mixed with imagery lifted from horror and sci-fi films.

This is a unisex collection, available in size 3-13 and has been created in the iconic, hard wearing smooth leather. Coordinating items include an 11-inch satchel and unisex t-shirt.
