New work by Catherine Truman

Truman's latest Hybrid carvings now on show at Collect, Sacchi Gallery, London and Organic Mechanic installation presented at Covet ,Central Gallery, Adelaide.

CATHERINE TRUMAN      6 HYBRID BROOCHES  & ORGANIC MECHANIC  INSTALLATION              2011
My current interests lie in the new associations, new connections and even new dislocations we experience of our own bodies in relation to our rapidly changing external environment.
I am curious about the role that new technologies play in the translation, expression and expansion of our individual and shared experiences of the human body. 
The ways in which this visual, sensorial, intellectual knowledge and understanding grows and undergoes constant change largely without a conscious registering interest me. 
These subtle shifts occur all the time and yet there is a notion that human anatomy is a static entity- a known structure.
These works are derived from a personal iconography made up of hybrid associations- of likenesses to living matter from the land and the oceans and to fabricated forms generated by science and industry.
