Between the ages of 8 and 16 she attended 14 different schools across the world. Conner felt a draw and nostalgia to the family holiday home at Studland in Dorset a rare constant in her childhood. Conner played in the rock pools, splashing in the water and exploring the beaches, which she believes ignited her closeness with nature and inspired her work later in life.

Conner encourages the viewer to constantly assess and question the power of the element in nature around us. This shadow sculpture is an excellent example of her exploration of the effects of the sun. As the sun moves it changes the shape of the shadow thrown by the sculpture. The ragged edges of the crown are untidy and chaotic which throughout the day resolve itself into a beautiful clean lined circle. The present work is a maquette for a large outdoor sculpture.

          ANGELA CONNER (BRITISH B. 1935)RESPONSEPlywood, stainless steel and resin 300cm (118in.) High inc. base Executed in 2011. The concept for the present work began in 2008 when Alan Grieve, chairman of the Jerwood Foundation approached Angela Conner about the possibility of a collaboration for Ragley Hall. In 2011 Response was installed at Ragley Hall on long term loan to the Jerwood Sculpture Collection. Conner was initially inspired by the beautiful architecture of the stable blocks built in 1751 by James Gibbs. Conner wanted the site specific sculpture to 'echo the disciplined elegance of the courtyard's building, but in a contemporary manner.' Conner's response resulted in this kinetic sculpture which was designed to move gently with the breeze and by applying a metallic finish to the surface Conner wished to emphasise the playfulness of light through shadow and reflection. This theme of dividing light and dark through kinetic sculpture was one Conner returned to over a number of years, developing both large scale sculptures and maquettes.

Sentinels is a small-scale air mobile which was developed whilst Conner was experimenting with both large and small scale kinetic sculpture. The work consists of two pieces mounted onto separate bases, each with four vertical elements, three of which move independently from the central axis. The design was intended for a religious graveyard, 'The Sentinels' representing the people protecting and watching over the site. The present work was exhibited at Beaux Arts in 2012 alongside sculpture by Lynn Chadwick, Elisabeth Frink, Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore.

The work was originally commissioned by Linda Pilaro. Intended to be installed on a wall the work is an outstanding example of Conner's intricate design, construction and resilience to building complicated structures whilst working with water, light and air.

The series was conducted to produce emotional responses to Shakespeare's characters creating forms not figures. Coriolanus represents two cages of steel rods, one encased with the other. The single rod running through the centre signifies the melancholy of Hamlet and the outburst of entrapment and reflective introspection radiates from this central focus.

In 1958, amidst political crisis, he returned to power as President of the French Republic and embarked on a mission to modernise French political and economic systems. His presidency was marked by his pursuit of national sovereignty, his promotion of international French grandeur, and his commitment to nuclear deterrence as a means of ensuring French security and independence. The bust is part of the series produced for Conner's large scale sculpture of de Gaulle which stands in Carlton Gardens, St. James'. Between 1940 and 1944 Charles De Gaulle set up the headquarters for the Free French Armed Forces from 3-4 Carlton Gardens. The sculpture was publicly funded and pushed through by Mary Soames, daughter of Winston Churchill. The sculpture was unveiled in June 1993 by the late Queen Mother. The success of the sculpture resulted in a statue of Churchill to be erected in the centre of the French capital in 1998.
