RECOGNITION
Buttner is an award winning artist with exhibitions nationally and internationally. She is an artist of emphatic morphology, her artistic practice is a delicate evaluation of power relations, revealing tensions and forces by combining static elements, while highlighting the borderless, transgressive aspect of institutional critique.
Appealing to her own sensibility, choice materials are wide ranging, integrating industrially manufactured with crafted objects (paint, concrete, jesmonite, wax, metal, wood, foam and latex), revealing juxtapositions and co-existences.
Performance, film and sound elements activate her installations, offering a metaphorical sense of place where hierarchies between historical and personal narratives are collapsed.
This practice involves sculpture, painting, performance, film and collaborative projects.
