From the Mountain to the Sea
‘From the Mountain to the Sea’ sees father/daughter duo sculptor Ulric and abstract painter Jessika Steiner combine artistic forces in their debut show together.
“Through extensive experimentation and play, I discovered a way to communicate my mind’s snapshots of the vivid colours and organic shapes of my childhood. The themes found in natural forms that make up such an immense part of my history growing up on the Hawkesbury River are also entwined with my growing passion for poetry and literature” Jessika
“My sculptures reflect the contradictory nature of my relationship with the natural world and the pull it has exerted on me to follow less trodden paths. My background as a precision engineer in Switzerland is reflected in the fine detail I give to all my stainless steel sculptures both abstract and figurative.” Ulric From the Mountain to the Sea sees father/daughter duo sculptor Ulric and abstract painter Jessika combine artistic forces in their debut show together. Ulric’s stainless steel sculptures reflect the contradictory nature of his relationship with the natural world and the pull it has exerted on him to follow less trodden paths. Jessika’s current practice in acrylic and mixed media translates memories and nostalgia of growing up surrounded by bush and water on the Hawkesbury River into colour and form.
