Catherine Ellis' work is predominantly sculptural, although this can take a multi-disciplinary approach and is informed by a wide range of interests including social and cultural issues. A sense of place tends to permeate the work. Common sights, sounds and experiences create possibilities and have potential for inclusion.
She has a particular sensitivity towards materials; their potential in conveying the concept of the work, literally and metaphorically. The act of engaging with materials and developing forms in an open and exploratory way is central to the development of the work. She explores relationships between objects and materials and engage intuitively with processes, experimenting and drawing out the narrative of the work.
Elephants in the Room is a new body of work made specifically for Catherine's solo exhibition at Fort Dunree.
