Ralph Dorey conducts research into modes of existence in relation to objects as a means of coming to terms with the lost spirit we most readily identify with Modernism. The artist is concerned with the act as a means of both uncovering and documenting, identifying the moment as the site of most consequence. Ralph Dorey completed his studies at The Royal College of Art’s sculpture school in 2008 and continues to live and work in London, writing, exhibiting and lecturing in the UK and abroad. www.ralphdorey.co.uk
