Thematic/contextual information
Braithwaite’s practice explores the constant exploration of repetition, process and formation.
‘Concretion’ series explores the boundary between sculpture and architecture, particularly Modernism and Brutalism. The large scale and complex nature of the sculptures allows for an exchange between viewer and work.
