Charlotte Fisher
Corten steel
SHIFT is a response to Fisher's first experience of an
earthquake in Auckland two years ago, a geological relocation of
landforms expressed in steel. The work is sited on a lawn above the
eye-level of passers-by so that the gaze is drawn to the slit, with
the sculpture functioning as plinth and the colour of rust
contrasting with the green of grass.
Charlotte Fisher studied sculpture at Elam School of Fine Art,
Auckland University, under Christine Hellyar and Greer Twiss. They
and five other sculptors collaborated to install new works in
Auckland Domain in 2004.
In 2007 she worked with her partner Erwin van Asbeck on the
installation Buoys: Before Shore on the historic central
Auckland waterfront, as part of Auckland City Council's Living
Rooms project.
