Artists > Beth Carter

Beth's work creates a rich allegorical world by integrating the human figure with animal form. Working within the realm of a sculptural tradition where the symbolic use of animal imagery has been a continuously potent source, she seeks a new level of inquiry into these timeless themes, and in this sense the work is flavoured by a mythological and classical aesthetic. 'Beth is inspired by myths and classical legend, her figurative sculpture embodies a mixture of zoomorphic and human form; juxtaposing basic animal instinct's with that of human everydayness, giving her work a soulfullness that is truly unique' Leonie Nanassy - Curator.
