A joint venture between artist’s Ben Jones and Basil Papoutsidis, featuring mosaic table-topped steel sculptures.

The result of an ambitious project initiated by the pair between 2020-2022 during the thick of Melbourne’s lockdowns, Mud Top is the artist's first collaboration between their respective sculpture and painting practices.

The outcome of this collaboration, are fabricated, playful objects that continue the artist’s collective conversation and exploration into industrial process.

Using mild steel and aluminium construction, the material is first cut, folded, rolled and welded then coated to the most professional standard. Tiles are broken and laid creating a unique and organic composition with each object.

Each piece is made with the intention of both indoor and outdoor use, however care and general protection is recommended. For any ideas, projects or commissions please get in touch to discuss - hellomudtop@gmail.com
