Anne Hardy's data-driven sculptures inhabit Talbot Rice Gallery
British artist Anne Hardy has transformed the Talbot Rice Gallery's Georgian Gallery into an immersive, data-driven sculpture installation. Treating the gallery as a found object, Hardy extends sculpture into the fabric of the space through light, sound, data, and scenography. The installation features a series of figurative 'beings' formed from cast elements, found materials, armatures, and earth drawings. These figures synthesize fragility and resilience of the human body with evolving technologies and everyday remnants. At the center, a lone figure kneels mid-gesture, forged from complex sculptural processes and foraged materials.
