Freida Breen

Ongoing

Freida makes sculptural work that is primarily concerned with temporality, scale, material and encounter. She pays close attention to the inherent character of materials and works with them in an intuitive manner, tracing a tensile line between the methodical- rigour, a sense of time in making- and the direct presentation of matter itself, as it is, or minimally influenced. 

Recent studio practice has deployed grafting as an aesthetic and poetic modality, linking it to ideas of exchange, encounter and the transmission of affect, in the cumulative graft upon graft of maker/material/space/viewer and so on. As it seeks integration, the graft is in a dynamic if variable and contingent process of unfolding between merged bodies, as yet unfinished in time or space, it is ongoing.
