Jennifer Cochrane, Sleeper Self-Portrait #4 (detail), 2023, burnt jarrah and wax, 59 x 22 x 13cm
Continuing her exploration with perspective, space and point of view, Jennifer Cochrane employs railway sleepers as a material to create a diversity of forms. Bending steel over jarrah sleepers, their surface charred and black as a result of the heating process, resulting in a series of tall, free-standing wooden forms – layered in a subtle and yet beautiful blackened surface.
