Artist StatementThe core of Ciara’s practice is informed by memory, specifically the relationship between memory and time in the context of the domestic space. She is interested in using her workto reflect the constructing, recording, and tracing of memory in a state of it slowly shifting,distorting, and deteriorating over time. Her work is concerned with the traces of memory found in objects left behind and the dialogues that form between objects of the past and present. Through her use of steel, cement, wood, collage and teabags, she is able to reflectthis.Motivation for the artwork being exhibitedMetronomes are objects that hold time, however they can be unreliable. They are thought to accurately keep time, yet can be slightly out of beat if a mechanism fails. Similarly,memory is often unreliable in this way. Time can feel as if it is speeding up or slowing downand there isoften a sense of a loss of time. The sound of the steady, rhythmic beat of the metronome is ephemeral, and yet the object remains. The cement metronome is no longer functional, and embodies a silent heaviness.

Catalogue 4: Form
The "Form" category, artists engage with the fundamental elements of sculpture: form, space, and composition. They challenge and reevaluate these aspects in their works. Notable academic writers like Rosalind Krauss and Clement Greenberg have explored the concept of form in sculpture, contributing valuable insights to this field. These artists invite viewers to contemplate how sculptures exist within three-dimensional space, enriching the ongoing discourse on sculpture's essence and its relationship with its surrounding.
