Description

LEAPING CHAIR
Anita Larkin – sculpture
Wollongong Art Gallery
30 September – 20 November 2011

Catalogue published.
Review by Gina Fairley in World Sculpture News 56. Winter 2012.

Collected objects are transformed into sculptures evoking a human narrative, revealing a strange beauty within the forgotten and discarded. The works play with the suggestion of physical movement or a practical function for the hitherto inanimate object.
Imagining life as the object, often subservient and abused, Larkin builds them anew into autonomous objects free to leap across the room, to play, to retaliate.
