designboom.com sydney based artist alex seton presents a monumental sculptural installation at the 2014 adelaide biennial ‘dark heart’, one which marries 21st-century ethics and ancient craftsmanship. he has carved 28 life jackets from white marble, composing ‘somebody died trying to have a life like mine’. the work stands in memorial of those that washed ashore the cocos islands in may of 2013, seeking safety from the perils of sea, persecution and rescue from torture of death. empty of the asylum seeker bodies that once inhabited them, ‘these jackets represent the lives of 28 unknown people who were simply looking for the chance to lead the lives that we enjoy everyday’, seton says. ‘the work asks, what is this darkness in our national character that means we do not readily extend good faith and protection to those who claim asylum?‘ seton’s work does not shy away from the tragedy of this event, nor does it force any particular experience on the viewer; rather it reminds us of the individual stories of those who undertook the fatal trip. the marble life vests, solemn and silent, are a testimonial to seton’s empathy for those trapped within a failing social system.
artsreview.com.au Alex Seton’s moving sculpture Someone died trying to have a life like mine has been acquired into the Gallery’s collection. Seton’s solemn marble re-enactment of an incident whereby the lifejackets of 28 asylum seekers were discovered washed-up on Cocos Island has been one of the most talked about works of art in this year’s Adelaide Biennial.
sullivanstrumpf.com Seton’s studio practice has investigated the relationship between the individual and society, with a particular interest in the power structures that determine our attitudes and behaviour and affect our choices. This can take the form of explicit political commentary, whether on Australia’s treatment of asylum seekers (in Refoulement, 2014, Someone Else’s Problem, 2015, and The Island, 2017), or on government surveillance and displays of overt power (Elegy on Resistance, 2012 and Panoply, 2007). But Seton often also examines our expectations about cultural forms and traditions such as memorialisation, to question how we determine what has value and deserves to be recollected and valorised. This enquiry has critiqued the form and processes of art and materiality itself (Roughing Out, 2013, Cargo, 2018 and Once There, 2019), but also includes reflections on the reliability of personal memory and its role in the construction of the self and identity (Meet me Under the Dome, 2020, A History of Forgetting, 2022 and Permanent Good Stream, Some Rocks, 2022).

Tom Babin of Shifter explores Calgary’s old sprawl neighborhoods and compares them to new, denser suburbs built in the far-south suburb of Seton, which is supposed to be where the southern terminal of the new Green Line LRT will be.

Since 2003, Gil Seton has served as the manager of SP Investment Fund LLC, which backs biotechnology and medical device startups working to make wider positive change. Supporting the company’s philanthropic efforts, Gil Seton has also supported nonprofits worldwide dedicated to diverse causes, including Hearts with Hope (HWH).
Founded in 2005 in Los Angeles by Dr. Juan Carlos Alejos, HWH is focused on one specific pediatric health issue. Its volunteer staff diagnoses and treats congenital heart disease, with surgery if necessary. The organization’s work furthers Dr. Alejos’ desire to care for children with congenital health issues, which was instilled through his upbringing by his father, who was also a pediatrician.
HWH does more than just provide one-off care. Its volunteers travel worldwide, particularly to underserved countries and regions, to train healthcare workers to diagnose and treat congenital heart disease. It aims to establish pediatric cardiac care facilities as widely as possible, allowing HWH’s work to benefit its target communities long after its staff leaves each location.
