As viewers circulate the sculpture, its components expand and flatten, appearing dimensional from one vantage point and like thin planes from another. The sculpture's shape derives from Shirreff's memory of a distant object she glimpsed briefly online. The title, Dusk Form, references that transitional time of day when natural light begins to fade and objects lose their definition. Erin Shirreff lives and works in Montréal. Her work was the subject of the 2025 exhibition Erin Shirreff: Permanent Drafts at the Milwaukee Art Museum. Shirreff's monumental sculpture Dusk Form is currently on public view as part of Sculpture Milwaukee's Actual Fractals, Act III exhibition. Shirreff's diverse body of work, including photography, video, and sculpture, is united by her interest in the ways we experience three- dimensional forms in an age in which our perception is almost invariably mediated by still and moving images. sculpturemilwaukee.com/artists/erin-shirreff
