Kirstie Rea
Australian artist Kirstie Rea walks in the hills and natural parks around her hometown Canberra to explore a sense of ‘connecting with place’ that can often be tenuous in contemporary culture. She expresses her experience and awareness in glass sculptures and installations. "The Folded" series depicts feelings of nature in softly curved glass and the "Rake" series that represents traces carved on the land by farming, carry her respect for and attachment to place, as well as her deep care for the reciprocal relationship of humans and the environment.
For Rea, experiencing the memory of place through her art is an attempt to reflect on her own ‘place’ and sense of unity with the landscape that embraces her being. This exhibition, her largest ever and a first solo show in Japan, traces the breadth of stillness she has walked by presenting recent works along with works from nearly 40 years of her creation and thought.
