April draws from her knowledge of both space and sculpture when creating new works. Considering how sculpture and installation works can react, exaggerate and celebrate their context.
A particular emphasis of research is in the progression of movement and how sculpture can alter and react according to a pedestrian viewpoint.
The act of making is central to her work, always creating prototypes, testing and exploring ways of fabricating conceptual ideas through models. Each variation of idea is tested and refined over a series of models in changing scale, material and detail to enable clarity and confidence in the final proposal.
April was recently awarded the $10,000 Clitheroe Mentorship award for Sculpture and has been mentored by New York artist Christian De Vietri. In 2017 April Pine also won the Sculpture by the Sea Bondi Peoples Choice Award with her work Trip I,II,III.
Pines work can be found in private and public collections throughout Australia, with her first international sales to Portugal and New Zealand.
