CHELSEA GUSTAFSSON
Victorian artist, Chelsea Gustafsson delights in capturing the beauty in ordinary and common subject matter. She balances this with unease, by composing pieces that are sometimes set to topple or lighting her objects with a suggested drama to their scene.

“I’m fascinated with the seemingly common or ugly, there’s an unexpected beauty in what is typically judged as mundane. Through the process of constructing items into a sculptural form and twisting or balancing them to find their sweet spot for a composition and watching how the light falls and reflects across them, they begin to gel and a beauty emerges. It’s this tension of what’s supposedly pleasing yet has an underlying awkwardness that has evolved as a signature in my work.”
