Geometrics and Organics
Giles is an artist who works specifically to the clients requirements. A tailor made approach not only ensures that collectors receive a unique piece, it avoids the notion of 'factory line' and keeps his work highly personal. This method of working also enlivens his creative practice, keeping the artist responsive to new ideas and inspiration.
'Geometrics and Organics ' include a diverse cross section of commissions that have harnessed Giles's creativity, whilst working in harmony with the landscape it has been specifically designed for.
Coriolis
Commissioned by Elton Hall to mark the opening of their new rose garden. It stands at 13ft. high and is constructed from reinforced copper. As water flows from the pinnacle it creates an arresting rotational illusion.
Lasso
Lasso is one of Giles' most dynamic sculptures. Constructed from marine grade stainless steel, adjustable jets converge to form a starburst in the centre of multiple ropes of looped metal. Lasso can also be created in copper.
Twiggy
With a height of at sixteen feet tall Twiggy is constructed from reinforced copper. Based on the idea of an energy pattern, the sculpture looks as though it burst from the ground. The sculpture has a 'rain' or 'mist' water function.
Twister
Twister stands at 15 feet high. Water is projected from the upper sections and 'rains' into the pool, creating a calming ripple effect. When lit up at night, it creates compelling textures and dramatic atmosphere.
Pagoda
Giles has made several incarnations of the Pagoda and has experimented with both three sided and four sided structures. The enchanting piece can either be made in bronze or copper, and has a water system that introduces water at every level, ensuring a crescendo effect.
Urn
One of Giles' more traditional sculptures. This piece is made from copper with a blue patina finish. Taking references from ancient Greece, the sculpture works well on a classic plinth.
Serpent
The Serpent is 9ft tall and creates an impressive jet from its central line. The piece is constructed from marine grade stainless steel, consistently mirroring intriguing reflections from the landscape and retaining its strength.
Topiary
Topiary was commissioned for Castle Hill gardens and stands at 12 feet high. It is made of pure copper and the organic nature of its construction makes it a perfect
sculpture for unique customisation.
Lava Wall
Lava wall suits smaller/urban sites as well as larger gardens. Created from copper panel which is then melted into an organic texture of holes, water runs down the surface. Lighting from behind, creates a sensational fire effect.
Blade
Blade is an impressive testament to innovative design. Created from bronze and with a height of 30 feet, it contains a stainless steel structure for strength. Water cascades from the pinnacle allowing the sculpture to shimmer in the sun.
Spire
The Spire is favourite design that Giles returns often to. Made from bronze, the largest piece of this nature stands at seven foot. The levels are arranged in a spiral formation so that gravity naturally pulls the water along the edge of each piece.
