-portrait-copy.jpegAbout the Artist: Brigit Heller
Lancefield, Vic
Sculptor

Although fascinated by the rigid strength that different metals offer, I use a variety of mixed media in the creation of my mostly 3-D works. Traditional techniques and processes like weaving, forging and crocheting are re-imagined and appropriated in the pursuit of creating larger than life experiences for the audience. You are invited to walk amongst forged copper plants or explore giant woven seed-pots. Intricately woven copper leaves are protected by glass cylinder, reminding us of exotic plants that require protecting. Largely influenced and inspired by natural forms, my works attempt to reintroduce a connection and familiarity with the natural world. Materiality, namely the use of recycled materials that support the creation of the unpredictable and irregular are important aspects of my works.
