Fiona Mulholland’s practice is primarily concerned with making visible oppositional elements of everyday existence. In sculptural works she uses common mass produced materials, along with universal symbols in order to investigate the tensions between ‘dreams’, ‘fantasy’ and the ephemera of modern living. Currently questioning how we solicit spaces/places of retreat whether physical or psychological, her concern is to make objects which hover between illusive and poetic yet often ‘artificial’ landscapes.

A common thread throughout recent works is the use of light and reflective surfaces to draw attention to the nature of transience, the interdependence between atmosphere, space and its effects on materiality and form. She generally reduces elements to their component parts to present configurations which are often strategically balanced and that present an inherent instability both visually and physically.
