Maud Cotter 'a collect of will'

About

"I do think that conceptual models of enquiry can be explored through sculpture, making with the matter at hand, seeing through it to new depths of possibility. Keeping this avenue of exploration open is necessary to maintaining resilient and adaptive minds capable of embracing and generating change, recognising new sustainable ways forward.

So I will keep going."
