Fascinated by movement, Louise Plant creates sculpture which explores light, form and space. In her most recent work, The Nudibranx series, Louise takes inspiration from natural forms created underwater, capturing the undulating movement of organic matter. Additionally, in developing the Parkour series, Louise has begun to make this strong urban inspired work in marble, highlighting the material's capacity to infuse light drawn from a dense city skyline.
