Designed to stand out, challenge expectations and powerfully make a difference to others, Ashley Cluer's (b 2001) work sparks conversation; it visually attracts further inquiry by asking for interaction. Cluer is utterly fascinated by the world and her need to understand is evident in her relentless experimentation and physical manifestation of the impossible. Her unique palette of overlooked, foundational materials results in her creation of sculptures that exist not because they should but because she wills them into being.
