about
Penny Coss is interested in the wider field of the more-than-human (stratigraphy, rock, water, stromatolite). Through materially-led processes, Coss employs ‘stratigraphic thinking’ as a way to approach the entanglements of time, location and matter.
Her interdisciplinary practice resists categorical distinctions, intersecting painting, drawing, video, performance and sculptural textiles. Moving fluidly between materials, fieldwork and forms of knowledge, she gathers, layers, reassembles and reassesses through ongoing encounters with place and its material conditions.
