Jane Downes Jane Downes is a sculptor based in the Banks Peninsula, Canterbury. She specialises in large scale outdoor works made in steel. To create her work, Downes constructs using plasma cutting and forming from sheet steel. Much of her work finds its start point in nature, culture, the domestic and science. As the artist describes, my work "cross[es] the boundaries between human and organic forms, architectural and domestic scales, permanence and the ephemeral." When creating site specific sculptures and installations, Downes explores forms that are structural yet delicate, combining geometric, abstract and natural forms. They are constructed rather than carved using industrial, domestic, recycled and found materials. Price Guide | From $6,000- $12,000 |

Odelle Morshuis Odelle Morshuis creates figurative sculptures that explore the connection of people to the environment. As the artist describes: "I enjoy the more poetic qualities of our relationship with our surroundings, I see nature as not separate from us but as part of a complex inter-relationship". The sculptures feature silhouettes cut into the patinated material, a technique chosen to create shadows that further populate the sculpture. These sculptures will age, rust and change- as the artist describes the sculptures will "mature and gain a patina....proof I lived". Price Guide | $995-$4,000 |
