The Artist
Lorna Green
work is a Manchester trained, Cheshire-based sculptor who works
mainly in public art and environmental projects, functional
earthworks and sculptures, located at sites in the UK and widely
overseas. Lorna says:
"My
sculpture is site specific in that it relates to the sites,
considering the history, economy, landscape or mythology of
the area. Materials utilised are pertinent to the project
– wood, stone, earth, planting, bricks, steel, cement,
bronze, water, glass, plastics and light".
Lorna qualified
with a BA (Hons) in Fine Art in 1982 at the (then) Manchester
Polytechnic, (now Manchester Metropolitan University) and in
1991 was awarded an M.Phil in Fine Art by the University of
Leeds. She is a Fellow of the Royal British Society of Sculptors
(FRBS), and a member of the Manchester Academy of Fine Art.
She has
travelled and lectured extensively throughout the UK and had
many Solo Exhibitions, Commissions, Residencies and Group Exhibitions
locally, nationally and abroad, including France, Germany, Canada,
Korea, Netherlands, Israel, China, New Zealand and Australia.
In 2000
as part of "Architecture 2000", she received
commendations by Leeds City Council for "Meet, Sit and
Talk, Conversation" and "Roof Garden".
In 2004 she contributed work to the much publicised 'Cow
Parade'.
In 1997
she worked with the Biffa Waste company offering ideas for landfill
sites. She also writes for 'Artists Magazine' on international
projects.
