There are aspects of Chris Charteris's work that go beyond interpretation as they explore the realm of feeling and intuition where the material itself expresses its own life energy.

A primary source for Chris's creativity comes from his love and aesthetic appreciation of the material he uses. He has a confidence and depth of understanding, and empathy with the mediums he works in, including stone, basalt, bone and ponuamu - so that the forms he creates reflect the reciprocity of the artist/medium relationship.

'Spaces between' explores this artist/medium reciprocal relationship at another level.

Here the navigation of spaces between, around and within each sculpture are integral to how the sculptures relate to each other, to their environment and to the creator of their form.
