The work offers nuanced observations of our immediate environment, and examines how we communicate and respond within those spaces we inhabit. These concerns are often social, political, and ecological, all observed from a female perspective.
There is no imitation or direct reference. The response is more subtle, personal, intimate, evoking a sensuality and eroticism and one which is often ritualistic.  

Current and Upcoming

Proposals:
Bells of Lapua: An interactive large scale sculptural works based on the lives of female factory workers in the 1970's in Lapua, Finland who lost their lives in the largest industrial accident in Finland's history. 
Roots: Video Installation - based on the extraordinary life of Jeanne Barret, the first woman to (unwittingly) circumnavigate the globe.
I am Seeping: a large scale sculptural, interactive and site specific work which explores themes from global extraction, exploitation and pollution of raw materials, to the minutia examining degeneration, demineralization, of our very being.
Beneath our Feet: an interactive large scale, site specific sculptural work, suitable for parks, gardens and woodland which explores and examines the often unseen world beneath our feet, again examining areas including decay, fragility and transience.
For further information and details of current proposals available please contact: galeriegilardie@gmail,com If you are interested in exhibiting large scale sculpture and video works which examine historical female narratives and female iconography, fragility, and transience please contact me for further details.
