Asia Ward transforms unconventional materials into complex diorama dreamscapes. More

In the hands of sculpture artist Asia Ward, the common construction material, aluminum flashing, becomes works of art. Ward transforms this unconventional material into complex diorama dreamscapes inspired by her own memories. Thoughtful use of shadows and light allow her work to expand beyond the 3-D sculptures themselves, creating additional drama in the spaces between the aluminum and in the artwork’s immediate surroundings.
