For his Ode to the Wrong Angle series, Gander started with found objects. First, he processes them in his studio. The result is sculpted, assembled, and cast in aluminium. Then, it is covered with a jewel-coloured coating and, finally, with a coating of glitter.
Gander’s starting points are chance, improvisation, and experiment, but he does create functional objects - vases, plant pots, even champagne buckets. In this way, he makes something sustainable from a disposable product.
