About Martha Sturdy

Martha Sturdy's contemporary sculptural practice investigates the primal qualities of raw and rugged materials, often combining industrial processes with organic matter to explore properties that are found in nature. Materiality plays an essential role within Sturdy's work, involving a highly-physical manipulation of rigid and challenging media ranging from resin, brass, bronze, steel and aluminum, to salvaged wood from the rural and mountainous Canadian landscape. Martha Sturdy's works are collected internationally, and she is represented by Caldwell Snyder Gallery in California, CoBrA Gallery in Shanghai and Heffel Gallery across Canada.
