Rebecca Sharp

b. 1989, Stockholm, Sweden

Instar, 2023
Sculpture with stoneware clay and biodegradable plastic

Rebecca Sharp’s work is characterised by her desire to understand the world around her and her place within it. She works conceptually, allowing the idea to determine the materials or media through which it can best be expressed.

The sculpture Instar shows a process of control and collapse. For Sharp, working on the piece was almost like shedding her skin. She sees it as a self-portrait and a portrait of our time.
