Cal Lane

Domesticated Turf by Cal Lane.

Cal Lane (born 1968) is a Canadian sculptor, known for creating delicate, lacy sculptures out of industrial steel products.

Early life and education

Lane was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia in 1968[1] and raised on Vancouver Island, where she trained as a hairdresser and a welder.[2] She has a bachelor's degree from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design and a Master of Fine Arts from the State University of New York at Purchase.[3]

Art

Cal Lane uses a plasma cutter or an oxy-acetylene torch to cut intricate patterns into industrial steel products.[4]

Lane's work is often described in terms of dichotomy or contrast. Fred A. Bernstein wrote in The New York Times: "The work is about the contrasts between the industrial and the fanciful, the opaque and the transparent."[2] Writing for Sculpture magazine, Robin Peck said: "The dialectic is obvious: industrial versus domestic, strong versus delicate, masculine versus feminine, functional versus decorative."[5] Lori Zimmer wrote: "Lane enjoys pushing the dichotomy of feminine and masculine by combining patterns of domesticity with these cold, harsh symbols of masculine blue collar labor."[6]
