My practice is interdisciplinary and generative in results often with intimate sculptures and object installations. I am interested in objects that synergise intimacies with the body and yearn for completeness within absents and separation. I am motivated by the differences within my practice and how works can become questioned and altered by engagement and evoking exploratory understandings.

My research unfolds metaphysical values that converge ideas around the intent of magic on material thinking and speculative folklore. This is a continual investment of interest and development. These values are exposed, compressed and fabulised within working methodologies that collectively pull together transitionary states, and confessions of experience.

Inherited Absents: Soft performance 15/3/18 AIR Gallery

Soft performance for the opening of my solo exhibition I Object, original photographs by Harriet Shooter-Redfearn
 
















 

I Object solo show at AIR Gallery


This exhibition brings together works that questions exactly what is the art. Through complex processes that distil how the work is made it becomes a myriad of efforts. With autobiographical, folkloric and environmental influences. The show is curated from invested interest in challenging perceptions of objects, both in their altered state and how they are presented to be seen. Shrines and altars are a point of direction for how the work is displayed. A recurring theme with the work is the horizontal plane and how this dictates an understanding of the visual reading.
