Celia Gerard

Oceans and sky, mountains and horizon: varying perspectives alter the geometry of each piece by Celia Gerard. Imaging an ariel view, circles and squares divide the fields below. There is an investigation of depth, both through paper and sculpture, which relies on the vantage point. Combining aspects of the exterior and the interior, her work feels architectural yet natural. Gerard’s artistic practice evolves deliberately and intuitively, steadfastly continuing to explore spatial relationships and compositional harmony.
