Savannah Du Quercy

Savannah du Quercy is a multidisciplinary artist in her final year of Fine Art at City and Guilds of London Art School. Her abstract sculptures are three-dimensional collages combining the dualities of her mixed heritage and itinerant upbringing between Europe and the United Arab Emirates. Each sculpture is a materialisation of self, highlighted through the composition which merges Islamic patterns and European architecture. The idea of oscillating between cultures is furthered by her use of packaging materials. An important practice that defines du Quercy’s work is photography, as it prevents the erasure of place and memory. The small photographs that compile within her work are reminiscent of passport photos reinforcing ideas of movement and identity. These themes are also emphasised by the names of her pieces which harbour dual meanings, such as the use of terms ‘root’ and ‘routes.’
