Millie’s art straddles drawing, sculpture, video, installation and photography. She is interested in the connection between walking as a tool for exploration and art as a prop for observation. Play is fundamental. The often temporary, playful and humorous interventions she makes in the landscape act as a kind of focus tool or punctuation mark, a shift, a pause. Colour, humour and a cartoonish energy bring life to so-called inanimate objects, symbols and elements. Materials flip upside out and turn inside down, hopping around in-between dimensions. Bending boundaries.
Weather is key; I’m obsessed with weather. It shapes and unfolds.
Colour pops in and out – here and there – bringing changing temperature.
Rural landscapes draw me in, to play and have some fun.
An opening, ajar; atop a wall; nestling into gaps.
Time slips away, through a crack; in-between a pause.
Bird’s eye view, sun’s eye, stone’s eye, cloud’s eye.
What will ground say?
