Cathy Wilkes
Belfast-born artist Cathy Wilkes produces sculptures that incorporate a broad variety of different media and found objects.
Her most celebrated work, Non-Verbal Installation is influenced by a Walter Sickert painting. The work features a bowl of dried porridge, a mannequin, some apricot jam, a television and a pushchair. Wilkes' work goes beyond the 'isn't is shocking to put a random object in a gallery' philosophy, and instead explroes the interrelationship between such objects.
In 2008 Wilkes was shortlisted for the Turner Prize.
