About
| In her sculpture based practice Eady van Acker (1997, NL) investigates themes like death, physical/mental injury, transition and natural processes of decay. The animals, the leaves, the stones, and the sounds — they are all integral to how we perceive and relate to the world. According to Eady, rather than seeing ourselves as mere observers, we should consider ourselves part of the environment, a small cog in the machine that keeps the world in balance. Eady collects personal memories and translates them into physical objects, as if they were souvenirs of the invisible. Her art is characterized by a poetic quality and often carries a sense of melancholy. Her work manifests itself through materials like clay, resin, steel, wood and stone. Often taking the less traditional approach for manipulating materials by using unorthodox tools or techniques. Her work always leads back to an eclectic mix of topics that personally interest her. Resulting in carefully created artifacts with an ethereal feel. |
