Sculpture & Installation
“It starts and ends with a question. A question is a compliment. I don’t know. A beautiful invitation. I don’t know the physical world like I do my internal world.My orientation is directed by subjective factors where object impresses upon me, which instinctually leads me to sculpture and performance. Project, collect.Reflect, create. It starts with a question and ends with a new one. Will you compliment me with your curiosity?”
Samantha Peters is a Toronto based interdisciplinary artist taking inspiration from her previous education in psychology and science applies it to her thought-provoking practice. What lies beneath the work is a question and rigorous conceptual development where the artist takes a reflective approach to abstracting a commentary. Obscurity, abstraction, endurance, imaginative symbology, and word play engages the audience to like the artist, ask a question.
