Madeleine Minack
Honours
As an interdisciplinary artist who works primarily in installation and sculpture, my practice derives from a process of accumulation. I collect discarded found objects to produce small, intimate sculptures which reflect minute details of normally unnoticed everyday matter. Through this process of collection I create something that, from a distance, looks insignificant. However, upon close examination the sculptures become a detailed and complex body of work. Made from forgotten things and re-presented with wax as a binder, the small sculptures—often no larger than a thumb nail—form a home for that which would normally be lost. Initially exploring journeys and passages, my work speaks to the everyday mundane and repetition. My artworks form a nest for discarded objects which would otherwise deteriorate into nothing.
