DescriptionMaud Cotter’s work exhibits an extraordinary understanding of the qualities inherent in diverse materials, which she uses to transform space and our relation to it. matter of fact is at once delicate and commanding of the space it inhabits. It draws our attention to questions about the reality of the physical world. The artist asks, “what is factual about matter, when it’s in a constant state of change?”
