ANGELA MCHARRIE

Angela McHarrie
ABOUT THE ARTIST

My work is primarily an investigation of visual cognition, playing with how we make sense of what we see. This has taken the form of precariously balanced, 'impossible' structures, perceptual puzzles and more recently coded systems. As a result, the works often operate in the space between two and three dimensions and therefore range across sculpture, painting and installation.
