Trisha Moore De Sanchez

I am Irish-born, living in London. I received my sculpture degree from WWSOTA in West Wales. Married to a Mexican.

I currently work as a bronze chaser (metalwork) at Bronze Age foundry in East London.

I am interested in how repetition transforms a unit. Building a piece by repeating a basic form can create surprising results. The work can become very organic or structured depending on how you construct it. I find it intriguing that the same basic starting point can lead you to very different end products.

This in turn makes me think of processes and how a process or system acts on, constrains or manipulates a material, object or person. The outcome being dependent not on solely on the initial material, object or person but also on what process they go through.

I would like my work to bring the viewer through a process of visual and physical exploration. The effect of this on them is a very subjective experience....No two people will ever see the same work.
