Rita Slater


Rita Slater draws on her experiences as a nurse. The body and its care are central to her work. Altering the form and function of reclaimed domestic or institutional furniture she investigates not only surface but also internal space, exploring ideas of memory and memorial, intimacy and distance. The piece above; 'Closer', was a chair encased in a plywood cuboid and placed in the living room.
