Elizabeth Lenny



Elizabeth Lenny’s work combines notions of time, process, and material. Each piece is derived from correspondence between herself and the material, following natural curves, grain, and resistance. These followed material properties tell the story of the material and its becoming.


Elizabeth’s process relates to traditional craft techniques, primarily using hand tools, to slowly reveal form. The resulting work occupies space between functional object and sculpture, encouraging interaction and use, promoting continuous change over time.

Soft Rocks

Soft Rocks is an ongoing series of hand carved soapstone art objects. The sculptural forms are a result of the  correspondence between the found form of the material and the hand. The patterns and colours of the stone are revealed slowly through this process.

Due to the variation of the material and the
inconsistency of the hand each piece is unique, no two alike.
