Lot description - from the online catalogue*


Cameron Kerr’s sculptural practice aims to give new life to images and forms around us through different materials and scale. His sculptures are exquisitely carved and finished and grounded in modernist architecture, art history and local cultural iconography. Kerr allows the shape and contingencies of his materials to influence the sculptures’ forms. He attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Carrara, Italy and studied at the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design. In 2012, Kerr was commissioned by the City of Vancouver to create five marble and granite sculptures for public display as part of the city’s 125th anniversary commemorations.
Most realised prices include the Buyer's Premium of 18-25%, but not the HST/GST Tax.
