Joanna Sands

Posted on May 3, 2006 Under Art

Joanna Sands started her sculpture career building large installations in abandoned buildings in the early ’90s. At first she was using found materials but over time grew her work and adapted to new and prettier materials. Point blank her work is about making simple changes to surfaces– the results are subtle but actually change the viewers spatial expectations. The work is quite unique and now Sands is being commissioned for permanent installations around the world. I’m always blown away by the fine detail in stretching, reshaping, and reworking wood like this.
