Description: In 2007 Romany Mark Bruce Irish - born lawyer and self - taught artist was confronted by a stranger while walking his dog in Kemptown Brighton. I want a word with you said the mysterious fellow and walked off without further explanation. Two days later Romany received a follow - up email: would he consider mocking up a design for an AIDS Memorial statue to be erected in the south - coast city? An open - call competition was underway:there were ten days left to enter. Having lost his dearest friend to the deadly virus Romany by then predominantly a painter though with ten years sculpting experience behind him wasted no time in making a decision and making up a design. The rest is history and his AIDS Memorial dedicated to Paul Tay is a poignant landmark much loved by Brighton residents. This monograph explores the life choices which have informed Romany's artistic pathway and analyses the sculptural techniques he employs in his thriving painting practice. Romany is in his own words a sculptor who paints ; his work has been exhibited internationally from France to Australia.
