Label TextIn her landscapes, Shatter aimed to achieve a sense of timelessness and mystery, and to reconcile what she saw as the contradictory forces of land, sea and sky. Elements often seem to be on the verge of tipping over. Her works convey a sense of the earth’s constantly changing and unpredictable nature.
