Altar of Hope ll

The customs of leaving letters and objects at historic and spiritually important sites such as the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem and Casa de Guilietta in Verona have been the inspiration to Diane's work - here leading her to create the Alter of Hope II.

Diane says "Markings and symbols reference identity and meaning in many cultures. Aligning ourselves with a group helps us work out who we are and what our values might be. It’s natural. It’s tribal. It’s human."

This sculpture, part of her Points of Unity series also investigates the ‘otherness’ of emotions and offer a focal point for connecting with memories, personal stories and emotions, establishing private moments of contemplation. It's a dynamic sculpture that has a transient feel to it whilst exploring concepts of fragility, weight and balance.
