Wrapped represents the ambitious culmination of artist Philip Ringland’s post-graduate studies at Bath Spa University. Inspired by architecture and literature, and informed by music, philosophy and politics, Wrapped offers a manifestation of Philip’s playful personality as well as an expression of his surreal and abstract outlook on the world. 



Bringing together discarded objects which have either been rescued from skips or found in the street and marrying them with his own family artefacts and items found in the free ads or car boot sales, Philip has created an installation of sculptural forms where the arduous task of covering them all with masking tape has provided them with a new shared existence and revealed new forms where any sense of hierarchy has been removed.
