Clementine Maconachie

Clementine Stoney Maconachie (b.1981) is a visual artist living and working in Sydney, Australia. 

 

Maconachie, primarily employs metals, skillfully manipulating, refining, and transforming them. Her sculpted forms evolve from the disciplined cold-bending manipulation of materials, using her body weight to achieve a fluidity that starkly contrasts with their raw origins. 

 

As an Olympic gold medalist and former world record holder in swimming, Maconachie's sculpture-making process and final creations mirror the fluidity and strength inherent in her past career achievements.
