Liz makes shells as a reference to “memory markers” - that desire to pick up and collect when out in nature. Items to remember specific events and feelings.
These Shells are part of Liz’s Canvas / Wire series which comes from a desire to push the 2D boundary. It sits closely at the intersection between 2D and 3D, being cut canvas it is flat, then with wire and hanging points to hold it out from the wall, giving movement and shadow. Form, surface and shadow are an integral part of Liz’s artworks.
The Tuatua Shell measures 58cm at it’s widest point, and the Dosinia Shell measures 54cm wide. They can be hung at any angle.
