Be Still
In this video Catriona Pollard takes us through her work titled Be Still from her 2018 exhibition 'I Am of You' at internationally renowned Sturt Craft and Design Centre. The sculptural exhibition featured stunning works that offered glimpses of shapeshifting natural forms, from unnoticed branches, leaves and seedpods into shapes that move you; that celebrate the abundance of nature and our place in this universe. This body of work explored the connection to all living things and the fluidity of energy between everything. It transforms the inherent beauty of nature into moments that encourage reflection and connection.
About Catriona Pollard
Catriona uses foraged and discarded plant material with traditional basketry and assemblage techniques to reimagine nature. Her work highlights the link between raw foraged organic materials, like vines and seed pods, with earthy materials like base metals including copper, and natural elements like charcoal, clay and ash. Most contains nothing but the organic material – no glue or synthetic dyes, and most don’t even use anything to bind it together, such as thread or wire.
She uses nature as a way to connect with people that goes beyond physical beauty but touches them in a personal and profound way. Transforming discarded organic material into sculptures forces people to view the natural world around them in a different way. It transforms the inherent beauty of nature into moments that encourage reflection and connection.
Catriona has had numerous solo exhibitions and exhibited extensively in selected and group exhibitions. She has been shortlisted as many art awards including Emerging Artist of the Year Craft NSW, finalist Ravenswood Women’s Art Prize, Northern Beaches Art Prize, North Sydney Art Prize, Warringah Art Prize, and Mosman Art Gallery. Her work is profiled across major art and design media and is featured nationally in galleries, high end design spaces and private collections. www.theartofweaving.com.au
