Kerry’s cast bronze sculptures are inspired by shapes and rhythms found in the natural world. It is envisaged that the larger pieces be sited outside where they integrate with the patterns and formal elements of plant growth, their characteristic evolving with the movement of the sun, changing weather and the seasons. Cast in bronze, they are robust and tactile, inviting the viewer to reach out and interact when encountered.

Born in St Albans in 1963, Kerry studied sculpture at N.E.L.P London from 1982-1985 and later worked at The Arch Bronze Foundry 1985-1986. In 1987 she undertook a post graduate diploma at The Royal College of Art where she advanced her lost wax casting knowledge in the foundry department. In 1989 she travelled to Edinburgh with her husband Brian Caster, where they established their own fine art foundry, Powderhall Bronze. Over the last 34 years the foundry has produced many private and public artworks which have been sited throughout the UK and worldwide. Some notable public works include, ‘Really Good’ by David Shrigley, sighted on The Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square, ‘Southwark Memorial to War and Reconciliation’ by Kenny Hunter, London, ‘Your Next Breath’ by Kenny Hunter, Royal College of Surgeons Edinburgh, ‘Model T Ford’, Fort William, ‘Lulla-bye’ by Andy Scott, Mortonhall Children’s Memorial, Edinburgh.

 

Kerry taught in the sculpture department of Edinburgh College of art from 1999-2007, leading casting workshops for students. In recent years Kerry has created her own line of commercial bronze sculpture, inspired by natural forms. These pieces have been exhibited at RHS Hampton Court 2019 and The RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2021, 2022 and 2023. They are also on display in the Powderhall Bronze Editions gallery in Canonmills, Edinburgh, an addition to the foundry business which was opened in July 2022.
