Seren Wagstaff

Seren Wagstaff is an interdisciplinary artist working across sculpture, installation, and performance. Their practice is motivated by working-class material cultures and the queer innuendoes embedded within them. Seren integrates documentary style strategies into sculpture to produce installations that present as re-imaged artefacts of research, collaboration, and public experiments. Their practice responds to the formal and informal economies of regional automotive, fishing, and farming cultures. Working with industrial materials, found objects, and mechanical systems, they combine field research with fabrication and performance to expose the tensions, irony, and unexpected intimacies within blue-collar environments.
