Ann Carrington

The use of discarded, found and multiples of objects is a fundamental element of Ann Carrington's practice. All objects are saturated with cultural meaning, which she seeks to explore, unravel and investigate. Mundane objects such as knives, forks, barbed wire, pins and paintbrushes come with their own readymade histories and associations which can be deconstructed and analysed to give them new meaning as sculpture. Materials are merged with form to tell a story through objects which are familiar to us all.
