Dalton Stewart

Dalton Stewart is an artist and designer whose practice explores the reciprocity between architecture, design and the visual arts. Stewart’s restrained approach to materials and processes is applied to create objects that foreground formal and abstract qualities, while drawing attention to the relationship between form and function. Through a tectonic and material-driven approach to design his one-of-a-kind material assemblages juxtapose reclaimed olivine basalt sourced in Melbourne (commonly known as bluestone) and machine-made sheet metal, to broach the complex histories and cultural significance of materials used in the built environment.
