Stephen Ives’s “Spiritus Mundi.”

Currently on view at Beinart Gallery in Melbourne, Australia is artist Stephen Ives’s solo exhibition, “Spiritus Mundi.”

Stephen Ives, based in Melbourne, creates his work from a found objects, toys, model kits and malleable extras, e.g., aluminium and polymer clays. He considers his ideas as a collision of popular culture, history, feelings and thoughts. After refining the concepts, he collects and manipulates materials and brings them together in an homogenous whole.
