Anne Hardy’s practice in sculpture and immersive installation re-imagines overlooked terrains, objects, histories and materials as holders of transformative potential. Considering how our bodies encounter spaces, hierarchies, freedoms, and uncertainty in relation to emotions, fragility and resilience, her work is informed by ideas of energetic presence, deep time, future archaeology, climate, and our status as organic living beings in a technologically evolving world where human qualities seem tenuous.
