Henna Vainio : Hardstep

30 Aug-21 Sep 2019

Overview

Vainio’s primary medium is pigmented plaster, from which she builds lean freestanding statues cast from moulds of corrugated cardboard sheeting, and smaller wall-hanging slabs cast from squashed towels and other pliant textiles. Along with a minimal, carefully choreographed array of these plaster works, “Hardstep” also includes the artist’s first work on painted and abraded mirror.
