Halsey is a multi-media artist working in areas of sculpture, assemblage and video, who has an instinctive and emotional response to material, form, light and space.
She borrows from an eclectic but interconnected range of topics and sources. Addressing themes of complexity, contradiction, and ambiguity, her work explores transience, intangibility, and ‘the in-between’—the liminal spaces on the threshold of opposing extremes where our understanding of a thing shifts and mutates.
It is usually generational trauma and the complexities inherent in human relationships that fuel the work; themes of conflict, power dynamics, and nurture are translated into three-dimensional form, often using ready-made objects which are deconstructed or subjected to destructive processes and then ‘repaired’. These are often displayed as part of an assemblage with other objects or materials, highlighting the complex nature of their relationship.
