SOFT SKIN
“Malcolm Utley, like many artists, oscillates between painting and sculpture. This new body of work produced in Kuala Lumpur pushes every aspect of his mark-making, lifting it outside the exhaustive, and somewhat tired, linage of artists working in tubular stainless steel. What Utley has managed to achieve in these new sculptures is tension. These works become liberated from modernist rhetoric and enter a complex, layered dialogue of suggestion, not dissimilar to Malaysia itself.”
