Belle Thierry is a visual artist based in regional Victoria whose practice incorporates elements of ceramics, sculpture and mixed media. Materiality is a critical aspect of Thierry's practice - each material chosen is shown in its most authentic state, highlighting its integral qualities and innate disposition. Her current work explores material engagement with architectural space, capturing details of ornamentation in heritage architecture through a series of ‘pressings’. These fragmented pressings act as vessels for emotions, contemplations and memories of place.
