Joanna Sands started her sculpture career building large installations in abandoned buildings in the early ’90s. At first she was using found materials but over time grew her work and adapted to new and prettier materials. Point blank her work is about making simple changes to surfaces– the results are subtle but actually change the viewers spatial expectations. The work is quite unique and now Sands is being commissioned for permanent installations around the world. I’m always blown away by the fine detail in stretching, reshaping, and reworking wood like this.

Joanna Sands currently has an exhibition in London – Topographie – at the APT gallery in Deptford until May 1st.
The exhibition features several new pieces, including the very witty Where is Deptford? – an undulating plywood strip that runs through the exhibition space, representing the river Thames leading to the location in question.
Get in touch if you’d like more info or would like to discuss the work further with the artist – sam.lulu@virgin.net
