Katie Stackhouse, Constellation, 2019
The floor sculpture and performance Constellation investigates the intricate and complex connections created between
the natural world and human relations. The accompanying performance involves the artist pouring
molten beeswax into moulds which reference the human body as other objects are placed with
intentional regard to one another, inviting contemplation of these delicate relations and
sites. Stackhouse combines stone, beeswax, gold, plaster and clay as a signifier of temporality and
community.
