infused with an ethos of economy, Overton's practice favours elemental materials, frequently recycled objects that are found on site or things discovered in the environs of the exhibition space. Making use of objects she encounters in a range of environments, from agricultural to industrial, Overton’s practice is driven by what she has described as the ‘natural push and pull inherent in materials’.
Made specifically for this show she will present a series of red and black lacquered aluminium sculptures made out of salvaged lettering plates from buildings in New York alongside neon works. The exhibition also includes new works on paper, in which Overton uses adhesive vinyl to create graphic compositions evoking three-dimensional forms.
