“Exceptional until time of Collapse”

"I am interested in the dissonant relationship with the natural environment and that little space inbetween where we find contradiction”.  Mandy Coppes-Martin (2017)

The thin ethereal nature of my work represents the delicate space that we, as humans, find ourselves in: the space that exists between denial and the inability to react, and that of acceptance and the ability to take responsibility. The transparency of my work, and the shadows that fall from the images complete and solidify the relationship that exists between the work, its environment and the viewer.


“I am interested in the physical connection to the material, the subject matter I work with and the theoretical association with the image and the material”. A distinctive aspect of her work is the imperfection, the fragmentation. It is symbolic of life itself, the world around us.
