Peter Mitten has been exploring form, perception, and material expression since the 1970s. Throughout his career, he has sought to create work that exists at the intersection of aesthetics, symbolism, and physical presence.
His sculptures invite open interpretation while engaging viewers through sensory experience and a subtle undercurrent of shared human symbolism.
Mitten is particularly fascinated by the architectural possibilities of box construction. His Cartons series, currently on exhibit at Oolong Gallery, exemplifies this ongoing investigation into structure, space, and meaning.
Through these three-dimensional works, he encourages viewers to discover their own interpretations while reflecting on the relationship between form and experience.
