Julie Brook : made, unmade

4 Sep-6 Oct 2013

Overview

Julie Brook is a British artist who for twenty and more years has roamed, lived and sculpted in a succession of uninhabited and remote landscapes. From the black volcanic desert of central Libya and in the Jebel Acacus mountains in South West Libya (2008/2009) to the semi-desert of North West Namibia (2011/2012) the nature of light, shadow and structure are expressed in the sculptural forms Brook makes. Her work is transient; temporal, ephemeral and unearthly, the sculptures are made of the fabric of the landscape itself. Brook documents these transformations through film and photography which then become the expression of the work within the gallery.. made, unmade is an exquisite filmic account of the work she created.
