Annie Cattrell

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Annie Cattrell, Capacity (2000)

Annie Cattrell FRSS is a Glasgow-born sculptor and artist.[1][2] Cattrell often works with specialists in neuroscience, meteorology, engineering, psychiatry, and the history of science.[3] Evidence of this approach can be found in Capacity, a work created while she studied corrosion casts, a technique used to show the structure of lungs, in Guys Hospital Museum of Anatomy.[4] It has been shown both as an art object and to educate; for example, as a part of "Out of the Ordinary", an exhibition held at the Victoria & Albert Museum, and as an example of a fractal shape in nature, at a Royal Institution Christmas lecture.[5][6]
