Life Ark
Mixed media
17 x 26 x 9 cm
I enjoyed seeing a display of Sadie Brockbank’s work towards the end of 2016. For me her sculptures successfully combine scale, form, and surface considerations to arrive at a strong impression of the primeval and ancient. I also admired the effective handling and finish of mixed media to achieve this aim. The "characters" in the work are sensitively posed or simplified just enough, and there is a suggestion of dream imagery in the way that they may stack or sprout one from the other. Sadie’s website suggests that the power of her work is built upon a sound discipline of drawing.
