Fusion

Yarra Sculpture Gallery

Collingwood

Kerry Strauss and Liz Walker playfully explore the complex relationship between glass, metal and heat by transforming discarded building materials and found objects into sculptural works which ultimately defy their materiality.

After months of experimenting with various types of glass, a range of temperatures and firing conditions in addition to metals found in countless states of decay,both artists were excited by the extensions to their individual art practices through this collaboration.
